okay, why am I always the one with questions, I went there abu tit doesnt tell me what its about just like the second page information it seems? Where to send and how to get it approved but what do I do???
It looks like you are supposed to create a lapbook or unit study. You have to contact them with your idea (what book or subject you are going to do your lapbook/unit study about and the age level.) Once you're approved by e-mail (their e-mail address is on that first page that ami linked to), you have until June 20th to submit your study. It looks like fun, if you make unit studies or lapbooks. I've used a couple different ones from Homeschool Share, and have enjoyed them very much.
Look through their categories (2-7 as you scroll down the page) and see if it fits anywhere. If you can't use it for the entire thing, maybe you can incorporate with some more material? I missed any discussion about the pizza box project, so I'm not sure of the details.
Geez...i actually found what i wanted on that link! Been wanting to find my dd some geography resources for weeks. I've been using "children of the world" and my kid just loves it. I'll have a look at the contest either way
TeacherMom, You can definitely submit a lapbook, but it needs to have premade templates. Does that make sense? Also, a new category was added for non-fiction units and/or lapbooks!
