If you’ve been around the blog for a while you’ll know that I happen to love unit studies. There are many reasons why. Unit studies allow you to:
- Include the whole family in learning together
- Follow the interests of your kids
- Learn in a hands-on, interest-grabbing way
If you’re interested in using some great unit studies with your kids, this post is a round up of many of my unit study resources. You can find literature-based studies as well as thematic unit studies here. In this post you can find information about creating your own unit study in five easy steps.

Literature-Based Unit Studies
These studies are ones in which I’ve taken a good book and given ideas and links for reading the book and expanding on it to include learning in a variety of academic areas.
The Girl Who Loved Wild Horses
The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe
Why Mosquitoes Buzz in People’s Ears
Theme-Based Studies
These studies are ones in which I’ve taken a common theme and shared a book list or ideas and links for learning about the theme.
Oceans, Sharks, and Marine Life
Charles Schulz and Comic Strips

If there is a book or topic you’d love to do a unit study on, share it with me in the comments. I love looking for resources centered on a theme or book, and I’d love to write a post about a unit study that interests you.
You can find even more literature-based studies in my free ebook- The Mega Book of Free Literature Unit Studies!
