Download N Go is a company that plans out the one week study unit. They have full, planned out lessons for 5 days. Their age focus is K-4th grade, specifically. I've used pieces and parts of their unit with my older girls. These lessons are simple to use, step-by-step planning done for you and easy to complete!
Have you ever heard of lapbooking? The focus is to have lessons for the student to work on for the week and create a finished learning "capsule" of that unit. This is a great way to create some record of what you are teaching. These lapbooks can be used over and over for review, share with friends and use for older siblings.
The integrated, reusable lessons include history, geography, reading, science, spelling, vocab, writing, art and much much more! You are given the file to print what you want over an over. If you don't have a printer you can use the study as a guide and write out or do the work from the computer.
I LOVE the list of resources that is given to allow further topic study. All the searching is done for you and the optional books (including ISBN) is very helpful. Besides the resource list, I love the interactivity that is built right into the file. Hyperlinks are embedded so all you have to do is point and click to go right to multimedia selections! This really takes the leg work out of your planning!
