Laura Farmer –
This was such an awesome unit study. I used this with my daughter who was a senior and my two sons who were in 6th and 7th grade. We learned so much about government and our constitution. It was both challenging and fun. I would definitely recommend it.

Great study. Not only did my daughter learn tons about our government and constitution, but so did I. Couldn’t believe how much I didn’t know and how much more we wanted to learn. When asked by a friend if I would sell the unit study to her, my immediate response was NO! I intend to address this study again in high school. You won’t be disappointed.
