How do I get started?
First, you will want to gather your supplies. Depending on which format you purchased from
us, you will need different supplies. So, take what applies, and skip over the rest.
*** Printing:
*Print instructions and study guide on white copy paper.
*Print the booklet templates on 24# colored paper.
*** Assembly:
*Folders: We use colored file folders, which can be
found at Wal-Mart, Sam’s, Office Depot, Costco, etc. You will
need 3 file folders. You may use manila folders if you prefer,
but we have found that children respond better with the
brightly colored folders. Don’t worry about the tabs….
they aren’t important. If you prefer, you can purchase the
assembled lapbook bases from our website.
*Glue: For booklet assembly, we use glue sticks and
sometimes hot glue, depending on the specific booklet.
We have found that bottle glue stays wet for too
long, so it’s not a great choice for lapbooking.
*Other Supplies: Of course, you will need scissors. Many
booklets require additional supplies. Some of these include metal
brad fasteners, paper clips, ribbon, yarn, staples, hole puncher, etc.
You may want to add decorations of your own, including stickers,
buttons, coloring pages, cut-out clipart, etc. The most important
thing is to use your imagination! Make it your own!!

Ok. I’ve gathered the supplies. Now how do I use this product?
Inside, you will find several sections. They are as follows:
1. Student Booklet Instruction Guide: This section is written directly to the student, in language that he or she can understand. However, depending on the age of the child, there may
be some parent/teacher assistance needed. These instructions will tell the student exactly
how to assemble the lapbook base and how to cut out and assemble each booklet. Here,
they will find a layout of where each booklet should be placed in the lapbook and pictures
of a completed lapbook. They will also tell the student exactly what should be written inside each booklet as he or she comes to it during the study.
2. Booklet Templates: This section includes all of the templates for the booklets within this
lapbook.
3. Study Guide: This section includes most of the information that you need to teach this subject. You may choose to teach directly from the Study Guide, or you may choose to allow
your student to read the study guide himself. Either way, you will find all of the information
here.

Lapbook Base Assembly:
First, you will need to assemble the “Lapbook Base” for your project.
For this lapbook, you will need 3 file folders of any color. Take each one and fold both
sides toward the original middle fold and make firm creases on these folds (Figure 1).
Then glue (and staple if needed) the backs of the small flaps together (Figure 2). Repeat this step for folder 3.

Lapbook Layout:
Below, you will see a layout for the lapbook. You may choose to glue the booklets into your Lapbook
Base in any order that you like. However, you may have trouble fitting all of them in unless you follow
the layout below. Some of the shapes aren’t exactly the same on the layout as the booklets themselves.

Hestia or Dionysus
There are only twelve major deities. Dionysus or Hestia completes the
twelve. Which god completes the twelve can change depending on who is
telling the tale.
Hades, although brother to five of the twelve major gods, was not part of
the main twelve. Hades lived in the Underworld, not on Mount Olympus.
Because of this he was not included in the twelve major gods.
The twelve are the primary deities of the Pantheon.
54
Zeus
King of the gods and god of the sky.
Last born son and child of Titans Cronus
and Rhea.
Siblings: Hestia, Hera, Demeter, Poseidon,
and Hades.
Married to Hera.
Children: Ares, Hebe, Athena, Hephaestus,
Apollo, Artemis, Hermes, Persephone,
Dionysus. Perseus, Heracles, Helen of
Troy, Minos, and the Muses.
Weapon: Thunderbolt forged by the
Cyclopes.
Armor: Aegis, a sacred shield made by
Hephaestus which he later lends to Athena.
Sacred Animal: Eagle.
Roman Name: Jupiter
Zeus is the youngest of the siblings and the only one not swallowed by his
father, Cronus, at birth. Rhea, right after Zeus was born, swaddled a stone
and gave that to Cronus to swallow instead.
There are a few varying stories on how Zeus was raised.
He was raised by Gaia (Mother Earth).
Raised by Adamanthea, who is a nymph.
Raised by Cynosura, a nymph on Mount Ida.
He was raised by a shepherd family.
55
Zeus needed the help of his siblings to defeat Cronus, so Zeus went up to
Cronus's throne, disguised so he wouldn't recognize him, and tricked him
into vomiting up Zeus's brothers and sisters. When they were regurgitated,
they came out in the opposite order they were swallowed.
Zeus also needed the help of the Titans which were Cronus's siblings. He
released the brothers of Cronus from Tartarus, where they had been
banished by their father. The brothers were Cyclopes, Gigantes, and
Hecatonchires.
The Cyclopes gave Zeus lightning and thunder as a gift to thank him for
releasing them. Zeus, with his brothers, sisters and the released Titans,
defeated Cronus and sent him to Tartarus.
After Cronus was defeated, Zeus shared the world with his brothers
Poseidon and Hades. They drew lots to decide which part of the world they
would rule. Zeus drew the sky and air, Poseidon drew the sea and Hades
the Underworld.
56
Hera
Goddess of women and marriage.
Queen of the gods.
Third daughter and third born of Titans Cronus
and Rhea.
Sister to Hestia, Demeter, Zeus,
Poseidon, and Hades.
Married to Zeus.
Children are Hephaestus, Typhoan,
Hebe, Ares, Ilithyia, Enyo, and Eris.
Sacred items are her crown and veil.
Roman Name: Juno
Sacred Animal: Peacock
Hera was the third child born of Cronus and Rhea. She was also swallowed
at birth and was full grown when Zeus released all his siblings from
Cronus.
Hera was often jealous of Zeus's unfaithfulness, and was often vengeful to
his other children. Hera was angry with Zeus when Athena was born. She
produced Typhaon from the power of the Earth in retaliation. She also
placed two serpents in Heracles' cradle and attempted to prevent the birth
of Artemis and Apollo.
