With Columbus Day fast approaching, how about taking your child on a journey with Christopher Columbus?  The book we are featuring today in our midweek markdown is so much more than your basic unit study.  I remember learning about Christopher Columbus in school.  I remember 1492.  I remember Nina, Pinta, and Santa Maria. But the Brandenburg study of Christopher Columbus goes way beyond the basics.   In the words of the author, “It looks at the inventions and changes that led to exploration; biography of Christopher Columbus; Navigation and mapping; and his 4 voyages.”  That sounds like an exciting time of discovery for our homeschools!

Heidi Strawser, E-book Reviews Specialist for The Old Schoolhouse ® Magazine, LLC wrote the following in her review of Brandenburg Unit Studies:
Each unit study by BrandenburgStudies contains a note to the instructor/parent, explaining what to expect from the study and how to make the best use of your time.  Also included are a lesson plan (that tells you what will need to be done each day), printable information and worksheets, lists of suggested literature and video supplements, notebooking instructions, project ideas, and the curriculum itself.  Each page of the unit study curriculum is filled with full-color photographs and lots of Internet links for further research. 

You can read all of her review here  as part of the description of the product.

When many of our other subjects require a lot of preparation on my part.  It’s nice to have at least one subject for which I don’t have to spend a lot of preparation time.  This Brandenburg study of Christopher Columbus is one of those studies that you can implement in your homeschool very easily.

This is a really great unit covering so much more than just the basics of the discovery of North America.  You can get your copy at a special price today only.
