What is a Binder-Builder and How Do I Use it With The Prairie Primer?

The Prairie Primer curriculum is made up of nine units-one corresponding to each of the nine
“Little House” books. THIS BINDER-BUILDER ONLY COVERS BOOK 1-“ Little House in the Big
Woods.” It follows, on average, a chapter-a-day schedule. Approximately twenty-five pages of
reading are assigned from the “Little House” books daily. Each lesson will then have two or more
booklets to complete about the lesson. There are a total of 13 card stock pages in this binderbuilder.

Gather your card stock and 3-hole punch them. Next, in the lower right hand corner number your
card stock from 1-13. Place them in your 3 ring binder. Add your 9 labeled tabs behind the card
stock. You will store all of your worksheets listed in The Prairie Primer behind each of these tabs.
The front of the first page will have your cover sheet glued to it. Then, your first “Today I learned
about” sheet will be glued to the back of that page. The booklets for your first chapter will then
be glued to the front of your second page. This lay-out allows you to view both the “retelling” of
what you have learned and the booklets at the same time! You will follow this process throughout
the entire binder-builder.
Located at the top of each “Today I learned about” sheet is the directions for its placement. At the
top of each mini-booklet page are directions concerning the construction of your mini-booklet,
pages to read, and what your student will record in the mini-booklet after reading to show what is
learned. A small key is also here to show you where to glue each mini-booklet onto the card stock.
Hotdog Fold-Fold vertically
Hamburger Fold-Fold horizontally
Folds-Sometimes labeled with a small line to show where the fold is.
Dotted Lines-These are the cutting lines
Cover Labels-Some of the booklets will have a cover label that will need to be glued to the top to cover a blank space.
