My friend Jodie and I have written a Christmas Unit Study, using a variety of different resources and we are indebted to all those who have written studies and shared them on the Internet.  Our study consists of history (Christmas symbols, their meanings and application), music (carols), art (masterpieces with Christmas themes), geography (Christmas Around the World), math (story problems with a Christmas theme!), literature and poetry, visual arts (Christmas movies), and home economics (crafts and cooking).  We planned to start on Monday, December 3, however, since we are out of the house four out of five days during that week, Sophia and I will begin our study on Monday, November 26 so that we are on track by Friday, December 7.

Jodie and I have had a lot of fun putting together this study - more fun, perhaps, than our daughters will have actually doing the study!  We will endeavor to study Christmas through a variety of media, and to delve deeper into some of the things that we have come to think of as commonplace during the season.

Stay tuned for the fun!
