My children were aged 10, 8, and 7 when we completed this short study on Animals. I do not assign topics for writing, but writing is normally done about things we have done in "school", by choice.


Unit Study - God Created the Animals

All study was done as a basic introduction to the many animals.

During the study, memorize Genesis 1:24-25
