HOMESCHOOL UNIT STUDIES
MY REVIEW:
I received 2 of the Download N Go Studies (Davy Crockett and Whales) to check out with my kids and I am impressed. Everything you need is right there and ready for you. I have children ranging from almost 2 to almost 14 and these studies could be used with any and all of them. My almost 2 year old sat on my lap totally enthralled as we watched some of the videos on whales that were in the Whale Unit. He loved it! Where as with my older kids a simple trip to the library to maybe pick up a couple supplements on whales to make the unit right at their level too would be fine but not even totally necessary. I'm a little new to the lapbooking and unit studies, I've always been a pretty conventional homeschooler, but Download N Go would fit into our lives perfectly. It looks to me like each unit is designed to take about a week so it would be perfect when you want to add something in or take a break from the "norm". I love it and plan on checking out more of their studies!

About Download N Go™
Download N Go™ studies are the next generation of exciting learning products, where unit studies merge with lapbooks in a fun and easy to use curriculum product. Written by Amanda Bennett and The Old Schoolhouse, Download N Go has a growing following!
Seattle, WA - 5/25/2010 - Download N Go™ studies are daily lessons and lapbook instructions woven together with eye-pleasing pages and interactivity based on exciting themes-ready for immediate use.
There are no expensive resources required; these units are complete and very affordable.
Download N Go™ studies are a new kind of learning experience! Exactly what will you find in each weekly study?
· Lapbooking activities.
As the student works through the week, he/she is creating a lapbook-a finished capsule of learning.
· Daily lessons.
Each study is one week in length, having five daily lessons with lapbook components for each day. Simple to use, step by step, but complete in content!
· Eye-pleasing pages of integrated, reusable studies.
Studies include history, geography, reading, science, spelling, vocabulary, writing, art, and more in reusable units, printable as needed-use them for your first child now, your second child in two years, and your third in six! Nothing is consumed.
· Resource list for optional further study.
These studies each have a great list of books that you can use to enrich your learning, but they are not required. This study is complete on its own. If desired, find books easily at your local library using the title and ISBN information for suggested optional resources.
· Interactivity built in with hyperlinks embedded right in the study.
All the research and preparation have been done! Enjoy a variety of multimedia selections, such as video clips and animations, plus educational and craft sites. You'd spend all week searching if you had to find all these great links yourself!
· Exciting themes.
Units are theme-based and full of exciting discoveries and motivation to develop lifelong learners. Your students will look forward to the next day's investigation! Designed to allow you to work them into your schedule (holidays are planned a few weeks ahead), plan to do them a few weeks after receiving them, or a few months-it's up to you!
· Ready to download for immediate use.
Download instantly! A few inexpensive materials are needed for the lapbook, consisting of basic art and school supplies you probably already have on hand such as a simple file folder, a glue stick, safety scissors, brass brads, and crayons or markers. That's it-simple, effective, and what a way to learn! The learning process is on GO from that point on-let the fun begin!
