State Brochure Idea

For our unit study Skylark I had dd10 do this neat brochure
for the state of Maine.
On the front panel she drew a picture of the lansdcape
about 1-1/2" from the top. Then cut the top off

following along the curves of the drawing.
She traced the outline of the state and thought of a slogan.

On the second panel (on left) she re-drew the landscape
and wrote a paragraph describing the landscape.

On the fifth panel (shown on the right) she pasted a
picture of a famous person from Maine. (You can draw this also.)
She chose E. B. White.
You place the person in the top right corner of that panel.
Then you carefully cut around the figure.
She then wrote a brief biography about him.

On the center panel she drew a skyline of Portland, Maine.

This is drawn at the top edge of the paper extending

down to line-up with the top of the landscape.

You then carefully cut around all the objects

to make it stand out.

She then wrote a brief paragraph about the city

to entice people to visit.

The panel on the right is labeled Interesting Facts.

Here she wrote a few things she found interesting about Maine.

This was such a fun project that I think

we will be doing it again!
