I have the rest of the minibooks to go with the free earth science lapbook, which is Earth’s Structures. Also, look at my page Lapbook Ideas for more homeschool lapbooks.
Too, I have a cover which can be used as a lapbook cover or for clip art to decorate notebooking pages.
Remember, for this lapbook, I am using the free middle science book that I shared with you earlier as a quick science spine.
Update: Free books can come and go quicker than at times we can keep up with them. There does not appear a link anywhere right now for this book. However, I have still have plenty of free help for you.
First, look at these earth science topics that are in the CPO Earth Science book and I have listed some comparable free links below.

Even though it’s an easy science book, Tiny loves science and the longer you homeschool, the more you move away from grade levels. Really!
FREE EARTH SCIENCE LAPBOOK – MIDDLE SCHOOL
It’s liberating when you can make your homeschool journey easier by using what you already have on hand, whether it’s up or down a grade level or two.
Too, because we couldn’t bring many books at all in our two suitcases when we moved here to Ecuador, free resources have been a huge help for me.
The first two miniboooks I have are match books about beaches. Be sure to read on the minibooks for the pages that your child needs to research to fill in these minibooks.
The next one I have is a two tab book which is about natural hazards. Simply fold over and cut to form two tabs.
And then I have an easy accordion book about Features of Rivers & Stream.
Fold accordion style and glue on the color cover or make your own.
Also, I have a trifold book about Plate Tectonics.
Lastly, I have a cover that can be used for the front of the lapbook.
Cut out the pieces and glue on the front flaps or you can use these pieces to decorate your notebooking pages.
If you want to flesh this lapbook out some more, also grab my fun hands-on edible rocks here Metamorphic Edible Rocks & Notebooking Pages .
Hope you like it and can use part or all of it to keep you moving along for fun science!
