Every child is special and one-of-a-kind! I’m thrilled to present the All About Me Unit Study—an engaging, hands-on unit study that will guide your children in discovering more about themselves, their families, and what makes them truly unique.

Did you know that the word ‘unique’ is derived from the Latin word ‘unicus’, meaning ‘one and only?’ Have you ever wondered what life would be like without a name? That is only the beginning! Get ready to dive deep into what it means to be ‘you’ through playful, inquiry-based, hands-on fun!

What is a Family Unit Study?

But first… what exactly is a Family Unit Study?

This unit study, like all of our ever-growing library of unit studies, takes one big topic—All About Me—and breaks it down into ten manageable, bite-sized learning topics. This format gives you the freedom to dive into learning at a pace that works for your family.

Perhaps you do one area per day, perhaps one per week. Whatever suits your fancy! You can learn and explore from start to finish in about 1-2 hours per bite-sized learning topic.

Each of the ten topics included with a unit study contains everything you need for that topic, including:

• a curated YouTube video,
• suggested information to read,
• a “what’s happening” section,
• an interesting fact,
• a discussion question,
• literacy and math extension questions,
• and an ultimate-can’t-be-beat hands-on activity!

Dive in and watch the sparks of wonder ignite. Watch the child-led learning take off. Watch what happens when children are engaged in what they are learning!
