Lucky by Designs posted a beautiful example of a field notebook. How perfect would this be in a classroom or for homeschool parents to use. She also shows you how to make a carrying case that holds colored pencils, pens and other necessary utensils for a child's fieldwork. Every budding scientist needs a field book to record findings. It's a great form of journaling and excellent for promoting literacy, especially in writing. Visit Lucky Designs and check out her wonderful instructions.

Thank you for posting this! I was actually talking to my friend who teaches grade 1 and he thought this would make an amazing project for his students. Part of his science curriculum is colour, and he thought this would be a perfect tie-in to that, as well as language arts and art. His only concern was making 25 of them, as compared to 1. I think he could do it, if he got the kids to paste the paint chips into their notebooks themselves!
