Download and Go, Expedition Australia--TOS Review

I was thrilled when The Old Schoolhouse sent me Expedition Australia to review. Ever since I became friends with a family from Australia and almost moved to Australia when I was a little girl, I have always loved and been fascinated by Australia. So having the opportunity to share this love with Princess Belle was very exciting to me. And it didn't disappoint, what a great study!

This unit study is set up in a five day format, making it simple and easy to use.

Day 1: Where on Earth is Australia?
Day 2: Some of the Special Places in Australia
Day 3: A Bit of Australian History
Day 4: Cool Things to Know About Australia
Day 5: Fun and Games in Australia

Due to her Austism, Princess Belle has a very short attention span and this unit was greatly suited to her personality. She loved every part of it. She greeted me each morning, eager to get started as soon as we could. She loved learning about the animals and the differences in way we use certain words. She thoroughly enjoyed the excellent activities and resources including: mapping activities, geographic features, unique animals, weather studies, activity sheets, video links, web page links, and more. By the time we were finished our week full of Australian Adventure, Princess Belle asked if we could go to Australia and she has an order in to celebrate Australia Day next year.
