Does anyone who has done RTR have a pic or a link to one on using the postcard template?
I'm wondering if there's enough room to do all that is needed on a page to include drawing or writing and gluing it to a page?
I've looked in the photobook, but I can't get it large enough to see it.

Re: RTR Postcards
Hi annaz! Here are a few of Wyatt's RTR postcards...
The space is intentionally kept smaller, which Wyatt especially enjoyed.
Postcards are meant to be short, and the space of the box forces dc to choose what to share. This sorting and sifting of information and what to share (as CM said) helps dc to think carefully and choose purposefully what to include in their postcard. This is actually a harder skill for some students than writing pages of thoughts. 
HTH!
In Christ,
Julie

Re: RTR Postcards
Hi Julie. Thanks for the pics, but the postcards I'm talking about are the ones from A Child's Geography for Science in RTR that you print from the CD, then glue in the Science Notebook.

Re: RTR Postcards
We did the postcards, and DD did have just a slight issue with sizing at the very beginning. But after the first one or two, she could picture the end result and adjust her writings/drawings accordingly. They ended up being a very nice addition to the science notebook. I am heading out the door for date night (insert jumping up and down, cheering smiley icon here ), and I am not that great at posting pictures anyway (they always turn out either too big or too small). But if no one else gets back to you soon, I will try to post some in a day or two.
