Human Body Notebooking

I have been putting together the binders for the human body study. I was thinking, (dangerous, I know), Instead of regular size 8 1/2" x 11" paper I would use legal size and fold the one side in. That would give more room for the body manipulatives that we will make. My shopping day is at the end of the week so I will buy some and try it out. This might be a very good idea especially for an older child that doesn't want to use the file folders anymore. I don't know if I want to keep the page blank or make a decorative border. This would also give more room for him to write, not just on the booklet.

Tom will be using Abeka Health 7, and also: human body lapbook booklets, McGraw-Hill 'The Human Body' The 100+ Series Reproducible activities grades 5 - 8, Gross Anatomy by Christine Becker, R.N., B.S.N. (I know, groooossssss...but it is life), Fascinating Facts about The Human Body 98 Ready-to-Go Reproducibles Grades 4 - 6 (size of pages minimized), The Body Book Easy to Make Hands On Models that Teach by Donald M. Silver grades 3 - 6 (sizes minimized). With this last book, he will put the models on the appropriate pages instead of making the body model. His notebooking will be, of course, for an older child. We have the human body model game and I believe we also have a human body to put together (I think). I hope I didn't get rid of it. We also have the Professor Noggins Human Body game. Ohyeah, I also have the Easy Make & Learn Projects The Human Body Grades 2 -4 We can use this also, minimized of course.
I will find some videos, etc. I will also add these to Tom's school list on the left sidebar.

Tom did The Human Body quite a few years ago. He must have been around 4 or 5. He doesn't even remember. Thankful I took pictures.

Katie and Ana will be doing this also.
