Unit Studies

Education with a Bang!

Education with a BANG suggests that when teaching active boys, incorporate a subject they love and develop it into a lesson that will help them learn the basics of education like math, science, history, english and geography. Not only will it ease the stress on the teacher, but it will benefit the child who will then love to learn!

Currently I have developed several unit studies, including Soldiers Through Time, Pirates , Spies, Herbology and the History of Fashion through textiles.
Each unit study encompasses many cross-curricular activities and lessons to keep kids interested in learning.

See what is being said about these exclusive unit studies!
Soldiers Through Time Unit Study

Awesome! This unit study can stand alone, or be used with your history curriculum. Here's a way to catch and keep a child's imagination & attention.
You actually get seven unit studies! As a homeschooler living on one income, I really appreciate the value.

I didn't expect it to cover so much ~ the soldier's duties, training, uniforms, weapons, and a brief overview of the times they lived in. But it also deals with math, measurements, vocabulary, memory, & language. There are maps, mazes, some really great pictures & all kinds of interesting details .

Thanks Sandra ~ my son loves it.

Herbology
I really like it a lot more than I thought I would.I don't usually read non-fiction but I may just have to start now!
(I thought Herbology was one of the subjects that only wizards study in the Harry Potter books, like Potions or Defense Against The Dark Arts)

History of Fashion Through Textiles - Module 1 - Wool
Looks very good. Interesting and educational to read, even for someone who thinks she knows "everything" about wool!

Brainy Bundles

Polite Picnic Birthday Bundle!

Brainy Bundles are educational gift baskets that combine fun and education all wrapped up in one. Each bundle encompasses a specific theme then offers books. puzzles, games and other learning activities to compliment that theme. The bundles range from infant to about age 13. There is a large variety of themes available like princesses and fairies, dragons and knights, animals, characters, vehicles and more!

Any child in your life deserves a thoughtful gift that will encourage learning. Sometimes, you have to go from store to store just the find the right gift. A Brainy Bundle saves you the shopping time, and provides a thoughtful, educational gift that will benefit the child.

Now there are three different sizes of Brainy Bundles!
Brainy Bundles are the big bundles, Birthday Bundles are a bit smaller, great to take to a themed birthday party and Learning Loot Bags have just a couple of items to help keep a child busy.

P.S. What is The Homeschool Club?

THE HOMESCHOOL CLUB is real parents and kids sharing their best resources for great homeschooling. Each day we celebrate learning by opening doors to a world of creativity, knowledge and discovery. In the car, at the kitchen sink, and down by the frog pond - the whole world is our classroom and we explore it with creative projects, games, and activities. This club is a place to share, organize, and discuss how and what we learn in the world. Make a free page to tell your own homeschooling story and share your favorite resources. We can't wait to hear from you!
