Independent Study: Astronauts

June 2, 2010 by Ami 6 Comments

Yesterday, Elijah asked if I would give him something about astronauts. I didn’t really know what to give him. He’s read the only two astronaut books we have (John Glenn: Young Astronaut and Neil Armstrong: Young Flyer) dozens of times. 

I decided to try something new for him–an independent study of sorts. So, last night I worked hard pulling together Astronaut Adventures. It’s a 4-day mini-unit for him to work through on his own. 

I usually share all my work at Homeschool Share (makes sense since I’m the girl behind the curtain), but this has too many links. I do not plan on updating this as the links break, so get it while it’s hot!

    I homeschooled my kids through high school, and we LOVED using unit studies. What great ideas you have for an astronaut unit! I featured your post at http://livingmontessorinow.com/2011/01/10/activity-of-the-week-abc-letter-box-and-astronaut-unit/.
