This book works great as a family unit study. "All About Bugs" is beautifully illustrated and will inspire your child to appreciate bug life on a deeper level.
For best results get some real bugs to study, it's easy to find bugs no matter where you live.
This Unit Study will last one or two semesters depending on how many pages you use each day. Just divide up the 250 pages however you wish, it doesn’t really matter how you do it. One or two pages a day. Ten pages per week. Three pages three times a week. You can't go wrong.
If you have a child that is interested in something, BINGO, let them study, research, and explore that topic. So if your child is obsessed with bugs, you are SO LUCKY, here's the Bug Book of your dreams, okay, maybe not your dreams, that would not be a good dream. I used to have dreams about giant cockroaches when I was a kid, over and over, totally bad dream. But for kids who REALLY love bugs you can relax, drink coffee, put your feet up, read a good book, and let your child Fun-School.
I understand how hard it is to motive a bored child. Just stop with the boring schoolwork, Throw it out. Burn it. Put it in a hole in the ground. Anything. Just get it out of your life. You no longer have to be in bondage to super boring homeschooling materials that no one cares about.
Just talk to any kid and you will learn that school is pretty much pointless when you have to learn a bunch of stuff that does not matter. Why should we force our kids to spend their precious years of childhood memorizing stuff you can easily look up on Google? Kids need skills, not just a bunch of short-term memory projects.
Think back on your own childhood, I just have five words that we can all relate to. Words that take you back to the carefree days of summer.
Firefly. Butterfly. Pill-bug. Ladybug. Cockroach.
These five simple words can take us back in time, a time with nothing else mattered more than digging a hole in the backyard, looking under a rock for roly-polies, or running around at sunset catching lightening bugs.
Bugs are where it’s at. Language Arts Science Nature Study Geography Art & Drawing Documentaries Research & Library Skills Audio Books Cursive Writing Copywork Reading & Spelling Creative Writing Logic Games Hidden Pictures
