My kids love animals, I love animals so focusing on homeschool lessons around animals is easy and welcoming, and something I know we’re all going to enjoy doing. This one is focusing on Antarctic and Arctic animal. I think we have such an interest in the colder climate animals after living through cold Saskatchewan winters ourselves.

This is designed more for younger learners, say grades k-2. But the beauty of homeschooling is that you can use a resource for your kids that are older than the recommended ages just by changing simple things. Like the books you read.
This mini unit study includes a slideshow presentation in PowerPoint and Google Slides too.
I have included two different reading list from Amazon: one for early readers and one for more advanced readers, or older kids needing more information.
