Making a Science Notebook for Animals
My kids love notebooks. We have had science notebooks, history notebooks, for fun note books – you name it. Our history and science notebooks are a cross between a notebook and a lapbook. We add pockets, file folders with 3-D objects, coloring pages, worksheets and pictures of finished projects. One of my favorite books for learning how to make all kinds of wonderful things – folded books, layered books, etc – is Dinah Zike’s Big Book of Activities.
But I have to say my family’s favorite notebook is our animal notebooks. My kids are crazy about all kinds of animals and this is a great way to enjoy science. If you have never done one my article, Make an Animal Notebook, will get you started. With spring in full swing here I am thinking of doing an animal a day in our notebooks. And, of course, I will share my printables with everyone!
If you are working on a science notebook with your kids you can find lots of coloring pages, worksheets and dividers for your notebook at Learning Treasures. Please check back daily as I am busy uploading TONS of them as fast as I can.
I would love to hear what your family is doing for science!

Hi Belinda,
Great site, thanks for sharing it on the preschool-homeschool board.
We are just getting ready to start an “ocean life” notebook,
and enjoy all your suggestions. We do already keep a simple
“science experiment” notebook with our homeschool group.
I hope you continue to make posts like this!
ITS FUN
Great post I liked. Thank you.
