Today, I have a free American history lapbook, learning about The Old West through the life of Wyatt Earp finished. Also, you’ll love my post 35 Simple But Powerful American History Homeschool Resources K to 12. and more ideas on my lapbook ideas and best homeschool unit studies pages.
We finished out lapbook and unit study and really soaked up life during the time period Wyatt Earp lived, which was the late 1800s to early 1900s.
Life in the 1800s and 1900s through the Life of Wyatt Earp
Too, I have the rest of the minibooks to share with you.
After doing the notebooking pages, it was time we focused some on the art of that time period.
Frederic Remington was an American painter and sculptor who specialized in depictions of the Old American West, especially during the time period Wyatt Earp lived.
American History Lapbook – Keeping It Fun
So we read about him and studied a few pieces of his art. I have a few of his paintings below on the art cards to add some fun and appreciation for art period of that time.
There is just enough room on each card to write down the title of the painting and the date.
There are enough of his paintings and work free online that it’s worth taking some time to look through them to understand the changing time of American through his art.
And then also because Tiny wrote about life during the 1800s and 1900s in the notebooking pages and wanted to include those on this lapbook as minibooks, I created some covers.
These go on the outside of the notebooking pages after they have been folded to add to the lapbook.
Be sure to look at this post at how to turn a worksheet into a fun minibook.
By the way, Tiny glued all the minibooks on there and forgot to include the minibook he did on Tomstone, but you can include that one if you want to.

- Possibly the greatest gunfighter the Old West ever knew.
On the afternoon of October 26, 1881, eight men clashed in what would be known as the most famous shootout in American frontier history. Thirty bullets were exchanged in thirty seconds, killing three men and wounding three others.The fight sprang forth from a tense, hot summer. Cattle rustlers had been terrorizing the back country of Mexico and selling the livestock they stole to corrupt ranchers. The Mexican government built forts along the border to try to thwart American outlaws, while Arizona citizens became increasingly agitated. Rustlers, who became known as the cow-boys, began to kill each other as well as
innocent citizens. That October, tensions boiled over with Ike and Billy Clanton, Tom and Frank McLaury, and Billy Claiborne confronting the Tombstone marshal, Virgil Earp, and the suddenly deputized Wyatt and Morgan Earp and shotgun-toting Doc Holliday.
Of all the colorful characters that inhabited the West during the 19th century, the most famous of them all is Wyatt Earp (1848-1929), who has long been regarded as the embodiment of the Wild West. Considered the toughest and deadliest gunman of his day.
Earp symbolized the swagger, the heroism, and even the lawlessness of the West, notorious for being a law enforcer, gambler, saloon keeper, and vigilante. The Western icon is best known for being a sheriff in Tombstone, but before that he had been arrested and jailed several times himself, in one case escaping from prison, and he was not above gambling and spending time in houses of ill-fame.
