I keep on pushing through with our home school schedule and created the minibook: What is the Ocean next. Hoping to squeeze in the Ocean Unit Study that we prepared together in our 10 Days of Diving Into Unit Studies by Creating a Unit Study Together before I have to completely stop homeschooling and prepare for the move might be too big of a goal, but nothing ever came from not planning.
I have learned through many years of homeschooling that with big changes you need to mete out some grace to yourself too.
Talking about moving, which you may get so tired of me talking about, but look what sold and was gone today.
This sale pulled at my heart strings a wee bit because all of my boys learned how to play on this piano. Focusing on the fun and wonderful opportunity we will have of living overseas though, I think I might be able to get over this quickly.
My plan for now is to not slow down with any school since I know we will have a long stop when we move.
We will go ahead and start our Ocean Unit Study. I have already started creating printables. As usual I have tried to create some of this minibook with cursive writing so it is not babyish and because if your kids are like mine they can always use the practice reading all kinds of cursive fonts.
Also, this minibook is easy enough to find the answers to because it is just a matter of locating Oceans and Seas in their Atlas on online, whichever you prefer them to do. I will eventually be creating a page with links too, but I have already collected several links when we prepared this unit study together and will be sharing them again together as I round them up.
So the title of this minibook comes right off one of the chapters from the book I told you we would use as a simple spine when we did our 10 day unit study series together, which is Discover the Oceans: The World’s Largest Ecosystem.
