HOMESCHOOL CURRICULUM REVIEW | OCEAN MAIN LESSON BLOCK |
![]() |
Want to see what worked and what didn't for our Ocean Main lesson block? I'll share the resources we used, the projects we did and even show you the main lesson book my son completed.
This unit was scheduled for 4 weeks, but it took nearly 7 weeks to complete. In large part it was because I was writing the curriculum as I went. I would research the topic we planned to study, then wrote out two pages of text as well as opening activities and projects as well as listed out the resources materials used for each lesson. That curriculum will be available soon!
