Switzerland Homeschool Geography Unit Study (and Lapbook)

I have a Switzerland unit study. Also, look at my page Best Homeschool Unit Studies.

Covering the history and geography of European countries has been light this year.

So I leaped at the chance to use CASE OF ADVENTURE travel series unit study, Destination Switzerland, The MEGA Travel Activity Pack and Cuckoo Clock Secrets in Switzerland. 

Also, Destination Switzerland unit study has many valuable parts to this unit study which makes it very convenient if you’re pressed for time or if you’re inexperienced in putting one together.

Switzerland Homeschool Geography Unit Study (and Lapbook)

It is a hands-on geography and history study, has an easy (always my standard) huge lapbook, includes videos and background information for each chapter of the living book, Cuckoo Clock Secrets in Switzerland (it has a christian worldview) and is laid out.

Do you know how hard it can be to find all those features in one unit study? Our new Switzerland unit study was just too irresistible to pass up.

Switzerland Homeschool Geography Unit Study (and Lapbook)

I was given this product for free and I was paid for my time. However, paid for my time does not mean paid off. All opinions are my own and for sure I will always tell you what is on my mind. Not every product will get a positive review. Too, because I carefully sort through numerous offers for reviews,  it means I’m giddy about the product when I do accept it. Read my full disclosure here.

Did I mention the book is about a homeschooling family that travels? We can so relate to that having lived overseas.

Even if you or your family have never traveled overseas you’ll love how Cuckoo Clock Secrets in Switzerland makes learning about Switzerland come alive.

Solving a mystery about an ancient coin while learning about geographical features and landmarks like the beautiful Matterhorn, cheese making, the culture of the Swiss people and of course cuckoo clocks not to mention yodeling, your kids will love this unit study.

Having used unit studies that required information based just on web links, which may be outdated, it was a breath of fresh air to have background information about the country of Switzerland that we could read about in Cuckoo Clock Secrets in Switzerland.

How to Learn About Switzerland In 12 Lessons

If you begin the unit study by printing the teacher’s guide which is suggested to do first, you can track which activities you want your children to do while reading the mystery novel.

Switzerland Homeschool Geography Unit Study (and Lapbook)

The teacher’s guide, which I had coil bound has three parts.

Preparation, read-aloud and virtual travel and activities and craft are the different sections and from there you can choose which material you want to cover for the day.

Like most unit studies, it is not necessary to cover all of the material or print off all of the activities. A lot of the activities are geared toward younger kids like the fun Discovery Agent Clue cards.

One of the best parts we loved about the unit study was that you can learn about Switzerland in just 12 lessons.

Unit studies can drag on and details can becoming boring if you try to cover a huge amount of information.

Unit studies don’t have to last a month or bore your child if they’re not interested in certain sub-topics within the unit study.

Flexibility is the key to a well-written unit study. So if you want to learn at a slower pace, each lesson can easily be adapted into a two day study. Your unit study about Switzerland can last for a month if that is your pace.

Another way we have covered unit studies is to turn the 12 lessons into a unit study for the quarter. If your kids are especially young, all under 7 years of age, then covering the 12 lessons by doing one lesson per week keeps the unit study from overwhelming your young learners.

Geography Activity Packs

So what I’m saying is that there is enough activities to make Destination Switzerland unit study a quarter unit study or twelve weeks when you include the The MEGA Travel Activity Pack.

The MEGA Travel Activity Pack contains fun things like printable money, journals and airplane packs which really make the virtual traveling part fun.

Hands-on activities, not clicking numerous links are the heart of a well-planned out unit study and Destination Switzerland unit study has activities for both older and younger children to choose from.

Tiny really loved making Zopf, a Swiss style bread while we read about our adventure for the day.

Switzerland Homeschool Geography Unit Study (and Lapbook)

Then, having created many unit studies, which include lapbooks and doing my series 10 Days of Diving Into Unit Studies by Creating a Unit Study Together with you, you know I love simple and uncomplicated lapbooks.

About Switzerland

Unless you’re working on your kids fine motor skills, having to cut every minibook and fill out every minibook can become monotonous though many homeschool moms continue to make their kids do that. Don’t forget that some of the prep work can be done when you help cut out the minibooks.

Switzerland Homeschool Geography Unit Study (and Lapbook)

There are many lapbook minibooks to choose from along with information that your child can glue inside the books instead of a bunch of blank useless pages. Again, because I’m short on time, I prefer lapbooks that have back ground information that my child can glue in especially when we don’t have time to research every topic.

CASE OF ADVENTURE may be a good fit for you and your kids:

  • If you don’t like to have to gather a lot of materials and you want background information at your fingertips.
  • If you want to cover literature, history, geography and have hands-on ideas laid out for you.
  • If you don’t want a complete unit study and prefer to add in some of your other subjects like math, grammar, a list of vocabulary words and spelling.
  • If you’re like me and have multiple ages of children, you want the option of choosing hands-on activities for younger and older kids.
  • If you don’t want to lesson plan and write out your lesson plan ideas each day.
  • If you want the ability to cover the unit study in broad strokes, then do it in 12 lessons or if you want to expand it, then take two or more days, weeks or even a quarter to cover the unit study.
  • If you like easy lapbooks like I do. My lapbooks are not lessons in how to color and cut. You can do that if you want to, but I want the emphasis on hands-on fun, not drudgery. Look at my post Beware of the 3 C’s of Lapbooking.
  • If you want unit studies that use living books.
  • If you want living books that follow a series. This is her first book and unit study. More are coming.
  • If you don’t mind printing all of your material.
  • If your children like to watch videos instead of doing research papers.
  • If you’re inexperienced at unit studies and need one that is laid out.

About Switzerland

What I would like to see change.

There are some features that I feel could make this unit study more helpful.

Try to remember that I value organization because my time is limited. So some of these things I’m going to mention may not bother you, but I think they are worth mentioning.

It would be helpful if the Teacher’s Guide had hands-on activities, printables for hands-on activities and lapbook printable separated under each chapter.

Sections in the teacher’s guide for each chapter of the novel can be Read-Aloud, Hands-on Activities, Lapbook Printables and Media Content. This would help me not to have to take so much time sorting through them.

This would allow me to see the flexibility for each chapter. For example, one time we may not want to do a lapbook and may want to read and do just hands-on activities. The next time we cover Switzerland I may want to print out the lapbook.

It keeps all the content easily organized when you can see all the choices at a glance for each lesson.

Also, receiving two emails up front about how to print made it a bit confusing. Receiving setting up and printing instructions would be less confusing if they were only in the download. Then, it’s all in one place at my fingertips on my laptop instead of having to flip back to read my email while reading on my laptop.

Tightening up the places to go to read about how to do the unit study keeps it from being too heavy on instruction and more importantly gives you one place to read for set up and printing.

I know these are just organizational and cosmetic preferences. They don’t really affect the content which is really more important.

How to Grade a Homeschool Unit Study for an Older Child (& high school assessment)

| 2 Comments
This post may contain affiliate links. For more information, please see my full disclosure policy.

Today, I’m showing you how to grade a homeschool unit study for an older child. Also, look at my free Homeschool Planner page for more forms.

I didn’t choose to do homeschool unit studies because I felt I was creative or liked flying by the seat of pants.

What I do like about homeschool unit studies is the unbridled time for learning topics that interests my kids. Later on I would learn that is called mastery learning.

How to Grade a Homeschool Unit Study for an Older Child (& high school assessment)

Choosing to move away from laid out curriculum to mastery learning can bring a unique set of challenges for an older child.

And doing homeschool unit studies, with an older child looks very different than the themed learning I did with my boys in prek and Kindergarten. That is another topic to tell you about.

Today, I am sharing with you what I have been working on for several months; it is a unit study assessment for an older child and it works for high school too.

Grade a Homeschool Unit Study

I wished I have done it sooner, but you know I’m always slow about my homeschool forms because I need them to work.

It took me a while to wrap my mind around how to do an assessment as I was writing my notes for my older two sons.

The bottom line is that I won’t give up our passion for mastery learning so that I can put grades on a transcript.

However, knowing in high school, that you do need more conformity, I created my own unique assessment.

Now with son number three, I have been able to put on one page what I’m looking for when doing a unit study with an older child, even a high school teen.

Let’s just face it, too. There is a lot out there for younger kids, but not a lot of specifics for older kids.

And because I deal in specifics and know generalities won’t help you or me either one, I prepared a detailed unit study assessment.

3 Smart Tips for Assessing Work for an Older Student

I will share the specifics about the assessment in a minute, but look at these other ways to record keep, grade and assess.

  • Keep in mind this is mastery learning or project-oriented type of learning. Think about assessing each part of the unit study using general marks like Distinguished, Satisfactory and Fair. Don’t get hung up on grades during the year because you can still assess one at the end of the year or unit study.
  • When it comes to language arts use a simple column method. I listed books and other sources my kids read, topics they wrote about and things they learned in grammar. Those things fall easily under the category of English in high school. I gave an assessment on those areas like Distinguished, Satisfactory and Fair when I graded them, but on the transcript I made them an A or B. We followed different writing programs through the years and I used the concepts they were teaching, but took the topics from the current unit study. Having a few teacher’s notes from the writing program gave me guidance on grading their writing, but I didn’t let it consume me.
  • Also,I wrote down the subtopics we studied. Even though we don’t have to record keep in Texas, I wanted to keep them for high school. However, if you’re in a an area that requires record keeping, then writing down what you have done is a perfectly acceptable way to show progress.

Another reason to record keep is that normally an older child needs feedback. I wanted my sons to know what I thought of their work.

It’s not only important to self-evaluate for an older child, but they need to learn how to handle feedback from me. This is part of adult life when others evaluate you.

unit-study-general-assessment-high-school-tinas-dynamic-homeschool-plus

About this DETAILED Unit Study Assessment

Look at how I created this unit study assessment, which can be used for an older child or high school.

  • It is a general evaluation of mastery.
  • Because there is no way I could cover every objective I have on my unit study unless I prepared an assessment for each one, I wanted one assessment that was unique. It is not about all grades and no benchmarks and vice versa. It has both a grade and assessments like I mentioned earlier.
  • I took each subject and highlighted two general benchmarks that I’m looking for at the high school level.
  • Also, unlike high school assessments, I created part of this assessment like a vocation adult mastery class because unit studies are about mastery. It’s important to treat my older children like they will be in the adult world of college and career. Each part of the assessment does not fit perfectly into a canned grading system. I’m not looking to fit each benchmark in my unit studies, but to have a general rule of thumb when grading.
  • The first section is the most important part to me because it deals with motivation and attitude, which are of more value to me.
  • The rest of the sections are about aptitude because there has to be some way to grade or assess older kids in each subject.
  • The last section is also of value to me because it is the very heart of mastery learning, which are projects. Projects are really self-evaluations for students because they demonstrate what they know and students will pick projects that fit their learning style.
  • Lastly, I can assign a grade at the very bottom if I need to. By not putting a grading scale, you can use your own.

Creating something unique that is both a mastery learning assessment and a grading system, I am excited to put this to good use.

Also, I love it because it makes a great add to my Ultimate Unit Study Planner.

3 Reasons to NOT Avoid the Homeschool Middle Ground

3 Reasons to NOT Avoid the Homeschool Middle Ground @ Tina's Dynamic Homeschool Plus

Fighting mini battles while we homeschool becomes part of our homeschool lifestyle. And it’s true that for many issues involving education, homeschoolers don’t wade in lukewarm waters nor take the middle of the ground approach. Being firmly decisive is key to surviving the harsh amount of negativity that is thrown our way.

Standing Firm on Homeschool Middle Ground

However, many things in homeschooling are more successful when you can step back and straddle the middle road. Sometimes taking an all or nothing approach can be counter productive, even extreme at times.

Look at these 3 reasons to NOT avoid the homeschool middle ground.

ONE/  When you do a unit study with multiple ages of children.

You can set your homeschool day up for failure when you use a learning resource that is too high above your oldest child’s head or one that is too young below it.

It’s a common mistake; choosing a unit study resource that is the grade level of your oldest child.

The secret to individualizing a delightful unit study topic is to  choose the middle grade between the ages of your children.

Seasoned homeschool veterans know that it’s easier to scale down activities for younger grades. Use the example of a plant unit study.

Younger students can color, label and dissect a plant. Older students or high school students can use the same unit study, but expand the activities on it to a high school level.

For example, older students can include plant history, learn about the local plants in your area and even spend some time in an apprenticeship learning from local professionals about herbs or plants. Ideas to use for an older student spring from the middle of the grade resource that you are currently using.

Not all ideas are so easy to round up for an older learner, but they are more useful than a resource used for your youngest learner.

TWO/ When you mix and match homeschool curriculum.

It’s easy to use the same curriculum provider with all of your children. Why would you do that though?

Each child is as unique as each homeschool family or should be.

Take the middle ground, avoid the extreme by choosing just one homeschool curriculum and use pieces and parts of a boxed curriculum, unit study and another curriculum to create a study that is unique for each child.

If you’re using just one type of curriculum, then one or more of your children may not be benefiting from it as much as another child. Mixing and matching homeschool curriculum will ensure a better fit for all of your children.

THREE/ When you begin homeschooling high school.

I did it too when I started homeschooling high school and that is to right away in 9th grade take a sock it to him attitude when planning.

High school is not about controlling your teen through his high school years, but it’s about working alongside each other. It is a give and take.

You give because your teen is a different person than you and your husband and he has goals and inspirations now that he too wants to meet. But it’s a take also because you don’t want to give up all your goals or plans for your teen’s future and some things will be must-haves in high school.

What I’m saying is that you choose the middle ground in high school when you help a teen keep balanced in all subjects until he decides his goals.

Some adults don’t even know what they won’t do, so don’t put a lot of pressure on a teen. Take the middle road by keeping subjects balanced until a mommy track, college track or job track is decided.

Also, grab some other tips from my other articles Homeschool Confession – My Homeschool Mistakes, Go Ahead and Make a Mistake: Homeschool Without Fear and Homeschooling – Beginnings are Usually Scary, Endings are Usually Sad, but It’s What’s In the Middle that Counts!.

Don’t give up the fight in touting the decisive ways we need to take a stand when it comes to homeschooling, but just know that the middle ground can not only be productive, but necessary many times in your journey.

What else do you take the middle ground on while homeschooling?

Unfolding of a Homeschool Unit Study – An Easy Mnemonic { I-SIP}

| Leave a Comment
This post may contain affiliate links. For more information, please see my full disclosure policy.

It’s a paradox. The free rein to study what delights your kids is the same thing that can make some homeschoolers feel restless and unnerved when there is an overflowing amount of material to study on a topic.

Sanity-Saving Secrets for Jumping into Homeschool Unit Studies

As I began creating unit studies, I learned a lot about the learning process and in how to help you to keep the material from being overwhelming. One quick tip to help you remember the unfolding of a homeschool unit study is an easy mnemonic { I-SIP}, which helps you to understand the steps.Unfolding of a Homeschool Unit Study – An Easy Mnemonic { I-SIP}Immersion, separation, investigation and personalization are the layers of learning that you build on as you do unit studies. And the mnemonic is one I created so that you know you don’t have to jump first into tailoring a unit study just for you kids.

Besides, if you went straight to day-to-day lesson plans, you would miss out on the ‘plumpness’ of a unit study.

Breaking down these steps to help you understand each one, I am starting first with explaining what immersion is and why it is the first step.

Don’t try to tame the overabundant information you have on hand.

Immersion is the first step and it is time for unrestrained exploration.

Being immersed or the first step in the I – SIP process is probably my favorite step. It means to “dive head-first” into a subject.

Until you and your kids explore the numerous sub-topics under a major topic, you won’t know what interests your kids.

This is so very important because unit studies are suppose to be about what you think is right to teach your child about a set of subjects.

Sample of how to plan for subtopics in a homeschool unit study @ Tina's Dynamic Homeschool Plus

(Sample from my Ultimate Unit Study Planner of how many subtopics we were exploring when we studied my FBI unit study.I wrote the main topic in the middle and the subtopics are all connected to my main topic.)

Another important reason to wade through all the material you have on hand is that you don’t want to kill your child’s joy for learning before you get started.

Think of a funnel as you start unit studies. Keep learning ‘open wide’ in the beginning to drink in all the goodness.

Unless you are teaching a unit study for the second or third time, time is needed to see which subtopics you will want to investigate.

For example, I think about my War Between ‘Tates unit study. When we jumped into learning about the topic, there were many subtopics that interested my boys.

From money used back during the American Civil War to the H.L. Hunley submarine that was used by the Confederate States of America, we read about many subtopics while studying about the American Civil War.

As you can see immersion is important because as you read over whichever resources or books you have chosen, a picture emerges of the subtopics that pique your children’s interests.

Though we read about the food prepared during the American Civil War, my sons were more interested in other topics than music, food or fashion. Okay, you know I have all boys. When we first studied the American Civil War, my boys were more interested in the geography and names of the battles and weaponry of the time.

However, had we not read everything we wanted to without restraint, they would have not know about some of the broad strokes of life during that time period.

One huge advantage to taking your time in this first layer of learning is that not only do your children find subtopics that would pique their curiosity, but they also have an introduction to a wide variety of subtopics from the topic you chose.

Don’t rush the immersion step. Sometimes we stay just a few days on this step and for other unit studies, immersion took us a few weeks.

Unfolding of a Homeschool Unit Study. Look at this mnemonic I-SIP which helps you to understand how to easily teach a unit study. @ Tina's Dynamic Homeschool Plus

Now, can you see why it’s probably my favorite step?

Learning without limits or the boundaries of a textbook is energizing, exhilarating and engaging.

Next, moving onto to the second layer of learning, which is separation is important. I’ll talk about  that next.

You think you can remember this easy mnemonic?

Ultimate Homeschool Unit Study Planner – Which Lesson Planning Pages to Use?

Ultimate Homeschool Unit Study Planner - Comparing Two Different Lesson Planning Pages @ Tinas Dynamic Homeschool Plus

I am excited today about sharing an update to the Ultimate Unit Study Planner and about explaining how best to use the different types of lesson planning pages that are included in it.

There is a reason it is the Ultimate Unit Study Planner because your homeschool journey changes each year and so should your planner.

New Beautiful Unit Study Planning 2 Page Spread

First, look at the new lesson planning page below, which has been added to the other two that were already included in the unit study planner.

Tracking Monthly Lesson Plans 1

Like I mentioned, your planner needs to change and be flexible. That is why this new lesson planning page was created.

For example, when I first started doing unit studies I was using the multiple level planning pages below (more on that in a minute) because I had multiple ages.

Now, I am down to homeschooling one and I see a very different need.

Look at some of the reasons why you would use this newest lesson planning.

  • You have an only now and don’t need as much room to write.
  • Each day has two lines so that you can jot down for one child.
  • Also, I see this lesson planning page mixed with the other detailed one I already have if you want to use it for an older child. Tip: Print off some of the original lesson plannings pages and mix with this one.
  • Also, I have the need again to track activities on the weekend because Tiny is doing high school level work now.
  • The weekend notes would also work for those states that have stricter record keeping and where every bit of learning, including weekend activities,needs to be tracked.
  • Because it only has two lines per day, there is a useful Note section on the far left to jot down whatever you need to track for the week. For me, I will be adding my objectives, lists of supplies for our unit study and books among other things in the note section.
  • In addition, this lesson planning page can be substituted in the free student planner for an older child.
  • If you are using unit studies and adding them to your present curriculum, you may not need as much room to write activities. This is the perfect lesson planning page to add your curriculum planner if you’re gradually adding unit studies.
  • A huge change in this lesson planning page too is that it is a month at a glance. Print off 1 (2 page spread) for each month. Can you say thin planner?
  • Also, this lesson planning page would works for a seasoned veteran, who doesn’t need as many detailed lesson planning notes and just needs a guide now.
  • This works too for those Type B personalities who want to see a few notes or who just need a framework.

As you can see, it is a very versatile lesson planning page that took me months and months to create based on homeschooling my only now and an upper grade child.

Now, look at the other lesson planning page.

4a Lesson Planning Pages subjects filled in @ Tina's Dynamic Homeschool Plus

The original detailed lesson planning page has some very useful advantages that can’t be overlooked either:

  • It is divided into three sections, lower, middle and upper grades.
  • It is for tracking work for multiple ages of children.
  • On the far right, I listed subjects for you to check off as you cover them in a unit study. Most subjects are covered naturally and there is a place for you to do that each day.
  • This is the one I used most when I had multiple children.
  • Too, this lesson planning page is EDITABLE. I actually have two versions. One lesson planning page, I don’t have you guessing which subjects to cover, I add them. The other page, allows you to add in your own subjects because as your children get older, you will have a few kids doing upper grade work and some doing lower level work so it gives you more flexibility.
  • This lesson planning page is better for detailed lesson planning and it is a week at a glance, i.e. more room to write.

You know me and my need to see all this jibberish laid out visually, so I did this quick comparison to show you the obvious differences in the lesson planning pages.

Just remember you get all of them in this planner.

3 Types of Lesson Planning Pages for Unit Study Planner @ Tina's Dynamic Homeschool Plus

I also added a new cover so that brings the color options to 4 for covers. And of course I had to make some matching note and journal pages.

The Ultimate Unit Study Planner is just what you would expect from an ultimate planner, which is to have everything you need in it as your homeschool changes.

Don’t forget:

  • it is also undated, which means you can use it year after year
  • has plenty of room to write on for the detailed lesson planing page
  • has one template that has editable subjects
  • has forms to track objects and assessments
  • has 14 sets of pages to plan a unit study. Not only do you have lesson planning pages, but you get detailed pages to help you plan each unit study.
  • unit study tracking page
  • 80+ pages with printing instructions and sample how to use pages

I hope you like the new lesson planning page added, the new curriculum cover and the new note pages!

You can grab it here and don’t forget as you’re building it to add the many free pages here on my site to it. Look at this post 10 Things to Include in Your Homeschool Planner – Because Paper Planners Rock!! to see some of the pages in my planner.

I hope you like this new lesson planning page! I am so stoked to use it.

Hugs and love ya,
