And even better? All our Unit Study Tool sets cover the same units and topics at the same time, so you can teach history and science to your children together.

More about Language arts…

Our Teacher’s Manual, included in the Primary Unit Study Tools will teach you how to teach language arts. It also includes how to teach narration and simple dictation. In addition, our teacher’s manual includes phonics checklists and instructions, spelling and handwriting instructions, Dolch Sight Word Lists by grade level, and complete instructions on how to choose copywork and use it to teach language arts using the same books you are using for history and science.

Do you already have a phonics program you like?  No problem.  You can use the Primary Unit Study Tools with a phonics or language arts program you already have on your shelf.

Note: this is a digital product and you’ll be sent a download link as soon as your payment is processed.

How do I use the Primary Unit Study Tools?

Simply read our Teacher’s Manual for how to plan and teach history, language arts, science, and fine arts. Choose to plan your study in advance, or just get started and journal what you read and do after you’ve done it.  It’s your choice! We encourage you to use our Unit Study Program Tools the way that best serves your family.  You can:

1. Read the Teacher’s overview for each unit.
2. Choose from our book suggestions labeled by unit and topic and gather your books.
3. Pick out the assignments and projects from our suggestions or create your own.
4. Choose a few English skills you want to work on for each week from our checklists.
5. Choose the copywork illustrating those skills from your history and science books (we teach you how).
6. Have your children narrate over their reading.
7. Journal what you and your children read and do

And that’s it! (Of course, you can also plan a unit at a time. It’s totally up to you.)
