Idaho History Week 8: Review Idaho
Well this was our last week. I must admit that I am just exhausted.
Thirteen 8-11 year olds require a TON of energy to keep up with. I had
so much fun putting this together, but I am glad that we have a couple
of weeks before our next session. Not sure what I’m teaching just yet!!
This week we did a review on Idaho. I found a download from EdHelper.com that had a booklet with the ABC of Idaho.They covered various items that we touched base on during our study. And a few we didn’t have time for. Well we did a booklet for the state symbols last week so I really didn’t want another booklet. So I got fancy. LOL, I changed it into a review game.

I took the ABC of Idaho booklet and created some game pieces. One part said the ABC letter and what it stood for, the other explained why. I also created little pockets to store the pieces separately. Be sure not to tape these too tight otherwise you’ll have problems getting the pieces in and out.
Here are the links:

This is just a simple matching game. No rules necessary. Just match them up.
Ok now this wasn’t my original plan when I was creating my lesson plan. My original plan was to have the students write a summary of Idaho’s yesterday, Idaho today, and what they hoped for Idaho’s Tomorrow. Unfortunately, though a couple of the students would have been able to handle it, Most of them could not.
Here is the minibook I created for the summary. Some assembly is required.

We ended the study with adding a few things to our folders to decorate it. Such as drawings of the state symbols, adding the state Motto, etc. I have included a print out of various fonts that say “Idaho History” for your ease!

We ended with a small party. I was going to bring in baked potatoes, but I was pretty sick this week so I didn’t get to planning this until late Thursday. So I picked up a cake instead.
Well that is all there is to it. I hope that someone can use these for a homeschool study (Co-op or otherwise) or even a teacher out there!
