After rowing How to Make an Apple Pie and See the World, it seemed only natural to row the book's cousin, How to Make a Cherry Pie and See the U.S.A. by Majorie Priceman. I found a simple lapbook on Homeschool Share and we just went with that.
We learned about the United States and our national symbols. We read about bald eagles, the pledge, and our capital.
We learned about resources and manufacturing. In the book, she goes around gathering items to make a cherry pie, instead of gathering the ingredients. She makes her own pie pan and rolling pin.
We learned about America - how many states, our bordering countries etc...
We mapped the adventure - where she went throughout the country. It was a simple study but Kaleb enjoyed the book as well. I love Majorie Priceman's books, there are so many things you can do with them. Have an awesome day.
