Here is the direct link to the first pdf. Here is the direct link to the second pdf. Here is the direct link to the third pdf, it is a Composer Childhood page that can be used for any composer.

And, you can find more study tools here including a pdf of some notebooking pages and many other things to enhance your study.

Debbie,
My older boys did the Grinch lapbook last year and enjoyed it. I put packaging tape over the word find and maze so they could do them over and over with a dry erase marker.
I'll have to pull them out for them to 'read' through this month. Speaking of the Grinch, hubby and boys are watching the cartoon version as I type.
