There is actually a lot more to this notebook now, as Superboy adds to it here and there. In fact just today he made a page with a world map and labeled it with the location each species of dragon “can be found.”
Note: Some people may wonder why study dragons? Since they are make-believe, isn’t it just a waste of time?
I say that the skills Superboy gained by studying dragons will be applicable to any other topic we choose to study. He learned how to write a paragraph of each of the following: descriptive, comparason-contrast, expository. He learned how to work MSExcell, he did art, he learned some geography, some science, and some history. He went star-gazing and he dissected a chicken egg. And all the while loving every minute! What more could I ask for in a school topic?
That is really nice. Your son put a lot of hard work into that project. My son and I were going to work on a lapbook about dragons.
Hello,
My daugther (7) is crazy about dragons and I would love to do a unit study and notebook like this for her. Where did you find all the information? We’ve gotten books from the library but they talk about the development of the eggs and thinks like that.
any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Hi Yazmin!
Most of the dragon info came from the Dragonology books, along with a few other sources for stuff like star charts, etc. We researched the Komodo dragon on the internet.
