Take every thought captive. How do you actually do that? In this unit, your entire family will be learning about your thoughts, feelings, emotions, reactions, behaviors, personality, and so much more. You will discover where these come from, what is true, and how to manage them from a Biblical perspective.
Intro to Psychology is so much more than how the brain works. It is a philosophy unit, a history unit, a science unit, an art unit, and a Bible unit. Daily devotionals, daily journaling prompts, a color coded Teacher's Guide for varying attention spans (for the first time ever), daily Language Arts creative writing assignments, and lots and lots of hands on fun! This is it. If you are new to Gather 'Round or can only do one, let this be the one. Let's give our kids strategies and tools for how to take ownership of why and how they act the way they do and begin to be intentional in our homes and relationships.
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.
