This lapbook was made to go with the book, If America Were a Village: A Book about the People of the United States by David J. Smith.
Who are the people living in this vast and varied nation? Where did they come from? What are they like today? How do they compare with people in other countries? The book’s simple statistical analysis provides a new way of learning about where people live in America, the state of their health, the shapes and sizes of families, what they use and more.
Grab a copy of the book and use the If America Were a Village Lapbook to get a snapshot of what the United States is like (as a village of 100 people).
Thanks to Tristan Rowlee for creating this If America Were a Village Lapbook.
