Unit Study

Travel back in time and explore U.S. history and patriotic symbols from a Christian perspective with fascinating stories, hands-on activities, a timeline, and a student-created history notebook. Also includes U.S. geography, Bible, science, art, music, and more. NOTE: Adventures in U.S. History is a one-year program designed for 2nd or 3rd graders who are the oldest in the family. 2nd or 3rd graders with older siblings in 4th - 8th grade should skip Adventures and go directly into the Multi-age Family Learning Cycle, joining in their siblings' current program. This ensures that a parent is only teaching one program for all 2nd - 8th graders.

Based on the Heroes of History biographies, the Unit Study Curriculum Guides unlock centuries of history, from Christopher Columbus's daring journeys to Alan Shepard's moon voyage. Here is a flexible tool for teaching U.S. history and social studies in any learning environment.

Curriculum includes: student explorations, social studies, community links, related themes to explore, bibliography of related resources, and culminating event.

Interactive CD-ROM format.

An easy to use how-to manual which dispels myths about unit studies like "too much planning" and "having to be creative" and instead shows how to simplify unit studies using notebooks and living books
