Our Antarctica unit focuses on the historical discovery and the scientific studies that have happened on this continent. Throughout this unit, students will be creating their own expedition journal, recounting their adventures or imagining what it would be like to be an explorer. They will be reciting Joshua chapter 1, Joshua's commission, and connecting how God has commissioned us to walk into the calling He has on our lives.
They will be learning about meteorology, geography, history, technology, and so much more! Make an optional timeline with the beautiful, hand painted timeline figures (found in the accompanying Teacher's Guide purchase) and learn more about our southernmost continent, Gather 'Round style!
What to buy? You can purchase a leveled bundle with one student notebook of your choice and the Teacher's Guide, or the full family bundle that includes all levels with the Teacher's Guide. If you have more than one child you are buying for, it is more economical to get the full bundle to re-use in the future with your kids at older levels. All digital bundles come as an instant download in PDF format for you to print at home.
How long are units designed to last? Each unit is designed to be 4-5 weeks. Our main units and most of our mini units include 20 lessons and can be done as a 4-day school week (lasting 5 weeks) or a 5-day school week (lasting 4 weeks) to offer flexibility. You're in control! Set a schedule that works best for your family and your pace will dictate how quickly you complete any given unit.
