Free unit studies are some of the best resources homeschooling parents can utilize with their children. A unit study gives you flexibility to adapt for any age range, and is often equipped with ideas and printables that work with every subject in your schedule. We love utilizing unit studies to give the kids a break from more traditional lessons while still providing them educational opportunities.
100 Free Unit Studies For All Ages
This list of free unit studies is broken down by different basic categories. While most of these are geared toward younger age groups, some may work great for high school students as well. Unit study styles will vary from homeschooler to homeschooler, so as you will notice with each individual blogger they may include various things.
Some choose to break down a unit study by educational subject with ideas for each concept. Others provide a lap book or printable list of worksheets and a suggestion list of books and other resources. Still others compile unit studies based on other online resources and break them down by the concept for you to explore at will. There are many varied ways to create and utilize a unit study. We’ve given you a great encompassing list of subjects and ideas to use in your classroom this year, and you’ll find within this list multiple book lists, full printable guidelines, lap book ideas, recipes, crafts, and even video tutorials to help aid your classroom adventure.
