#Free #Homeschooling Unit Study: October 2011

Sharing is caring!

Each month, I try to share a neat unit study that coordinates with fun and sometimes wacky Holidays for the upcoming month.  In addition to tips, ideas, and thoughts, I will also include links to some fun things to learn about in your homeschool.  Don’t homeschool?  No big deal!  Spend time with your kids during the weekends and on holidays doing these fun things and teach them something in the process!

I have a big resource full of fun themed unit studies that I think you’ll love!

Cookie Month

Specific Days that Coordinate:

  • 1st – World Vegetarian Day (ever made cookies without eggs? Try this Chocolate Chip Cookies recipe.

  • 12th – It’s My Party Day!  Have a little party and only serve cookies.

  • 22nd – National Nut Day.  Seems like the perfect day to make some cookies with nuts in them.

Fun things to do this month:

I love the idea of using cookies as a unit study. And the Oreo recipe sounds yummy. Visiting from WLW.
