About the Free Titanic Lapbook

Like most all of my lapbooks and lapbook ideas, I create my lapbook with multiple ages of kids in mind.

Too, I prefer graphics which are not baby-ish but that will be accepted by a wide range of ages.

First, I turned the file folder landscape for this one. It just fit the length of how a ship would look.

So all the minibooks fit with a landscape view.

Next, here are the minibooks that come in the download and can help you plan your unit study.

  • A beautiful outside color cover. 2 parts. One for the top flap of the file folder and the other one for the bottom of the file folder.
  • Growler and Berger Bits minibook.

  • Then and Now minibook
  • Titanic Sinking Timeline
  • Floating Hotel and Titanic’s Voyage
  • About First, Second and Third Class

      So sorry you’re having trouble, but I see that you’ve already subscribed AND confirmed.

      So you’re not waiting on an email when you sign up now for my freebies. You only have to wait ONCE to confirm being on my list. Now that that is done, you can get your freebie by “signing up again” on this page to get this particular freebie.

      So now put this email in the form and you get the lapbook with NO waiting! (Basically it’s like resubscribing in a sense) Again, add your email to the form at the bottom of this page and once you hit enter you get access to it. Let me know if you have trouble.♥♥
