Around the World: 6 books about Antarctica

4/1/2018

0 Comments

 
Curriculum: 6 books about Antarctica (Calm Cradle Photo & Design) Chapel Hill, NC. Homeschool unit study.
​Well my goal of posting our Around the World book lists shortly after we finished each unit fell by the wayside pretty quickly. I'm going to try to zip through them without much commentary and get as many posted as I can over the next few weeks before we start our new school year. We made it through all the continents during the 2017-2018 school year, so just send me a line if you're looking for a specific book list before I've posted it.

Antarctica
  • A Mother’s Journey by Markle
  • Penguins by Gibbons
  • Ann and Liv Cross Antarctica by Bancroft
  • Trapped by the Ice! by McCurdy (This one is fascinating.)
  • What Makes the Wind? by Santrey (not specific to Antarctica but quite relevant)
  • Whales (The First Nature-Fact Book)

Activities
Identified and labeled Antarctica maps. Wrote stories about penguins. Visited penguins, sharks and other creatures at the Greensboro Science Center. Wrote and illustrated penguin fact sheets. Snow day fun (actually multiple snow days of fun): sledding, snow forts and snowballs. Studied explorers and their trials, successes and mishaps.
