What is in an Online Unit Study?
Our young adventurers, Jaxon & Harleigh, lead us on a Christmas Adventure!
Start each day with a letter from our adventurers. These letters give your child a challenge and something to pay attention to while doing the activities. They also share stories to help your child make connections to their real-life making learning meaningful.
Jaxon & Harleigh model good questioning and curiosity. The goal is to ignite that curiosity in your child. You’ll soon notice your child asking questions and sharing their curiosities in the same way as the adventurers.
Rabbit Trails
In our online courses, we go on rabbit trails of discovery. We hop off the traditional roads of literature studies and meander down paths about science, culture, history, biographies, poetry, music and more.
We take deep dives into some of the subjects touched on in the book and broaden our minds with new adventures -- all while building better reading comprehension.
Magic Dust
In our courses, we bring literature to life by sprinkling a bit of magic dust along the way.
These hands-on projects will take us into the book through science, art, games and more. Students make connections to the literature by touching, seeing, feeling and becoming a part of the book through the activities.
Party School!
The pinnacle of the Online Unit Study experience is the Party School!
At the end of each literature study, we celebrate with a party. Invite friends or family over for food and fun! All the ideas for food and decorations are included.
Your Instructor,
Dachelle McVey
Dachelle is a former traditional teacher turned homeschool mom. She has a passion for literature and for adding adventure to her homeschool. She has started several book clubs in her community with the idea that each book club should be a celebration of literature. At Literary Adventures for Kids she takes those experiences and uses them to create online book clubs that add that little bit of magic to your children's education.
“Education should be a living, breathing, tangible thing.”
Frequently Asked Questions
What ages of children is the book club for?
This book has topics that would appeal to elementary.
What supplies will we need?
You may want a notebook for notes and vocabulary. The project supply list is provided at the beginning of the course. You may choose which projects you will want to do.
When does the course start and finish?
This is a self-paced course. There are no starting or ending dates. Feel free to use at your leisure.
How long do I have access to the course?
After enrolling, you have unlimited access to this course for as long as you like - across any and all devices you own for the lifetime of Hide The Chocolate's Literary Adventures for Kids.
How long should this unit study take my child?
The book club is set up on a lesson by lesson basis. It can take as much or as little time as you and your child feel you want to spend. That said, the original design is for a 12 day unit study. However, I recommend you choose which projects will be a good fit for your child and not feel obligated to complete all lessons.
Can my child work through this independently?
Yes, this course is designed for older children to complete mostly independently. (Younger children may need some help.) However, parents should be available to help with projects. I recommend parents review the course before their children begin.
Can this be used for more than one child or as a family unit study?
Absolutely! We are a homeschooling family, and we encourage all our children to participate in unit studies. Often we will read the books together as a family read-aloud and then work through the rabbit trails and magic dust together.
