Lent Stations of the Cross Presentation: Prewriting, Project Outline, and Rubric
By Catholic Kids
This product contains everything you need to help students create a Stations of the Cross Presentation. The students will be expected to create a 14 slide PowerPoint Presentation reflecting on the 14 Stations.
Includes a Word Document & PDF of the following:
~Stations of the Cross Presentation Expectations: This document can be handed out to students when the project is assigned. It covers the expectations for the project, as well as a small rubric so they can see how the project will be graded.

Most of the verses tell the story of that particular station. Some verses were selected as a reflection on the station.

Pumpkin Patch Field Trip Unit - Bundle All Ages
By Three Little Homeschoolers
Get ready for your upcoming visit to the pumpkin patch with this field trip bundle! This bundle includes the Preschool & Kinder, Elementary, and Middle & High School Units. Includes reading passages and fun activities for before and after the field trip, as well as a trip reflection activity that can be used for any field trip.
All Pumpkin Patch Field Trip Units follow the same outline and the parent/teacher info sheet is the same for all three so that if you have children of several ages, you can seamlessly teach them together. Homeschooling parents and teachers taking multiple grades on the trip can easily combine the three units included in this bundle.
Includes:
Pre-Trip Activities
Post-Trip Activities
The Pumpkin Patch Field Trip Unit is part of my Field Trip Unit Series. The series was created with homeschoolers in mind, but can be adapted to be used in a classroom as well. Field trips are a great way to supplement learning, but often homeschoolers don’t get any background information on the location of their field trip and want to enrich their experience by expanding the learning at home before and after the trip. These units help give information and fun activities before and after the field trip.
These units are available individually in PreK/Kinder, Elementary, and Middle & High School levels. Buying in this bundle saves you 20% off the individual prices

Holiday Toy Trends Mini Research Unit
By Three Little Homeschoolers
Every year there's that ONE holiday toy that captures the hearts of kids and sends parents off to the store to grab the last one. This mini unit covers the history of Christmas toys through four decades (some of which you will remember!). The unit is divided into three parts and relies heavily on student research. The parts can be done at your own pace over the course of a week or over several weeks.
Part One
-Includes two reading passages, one about the history of holiday gift giving and one about the rise of the toy industry.
-Research Project: Students are given four worksheets, one for each of the decades (1970s, 1980s, 1990s, 2000s), and they must research toy trends for each decade
Part Two
-All of part two is in the included PowerPoint. This covers holiday advertising, starting with the early days of ads, through the department store catalog, and into modern television commercials.
-There are three links to toy commercials from the 70s, 80s, and 90s to watch with students
Part Three
-In part three, students will conduct an interview with an older friend or family member about their own holiday toy memories
-Final Project: Students pick one of three final projects to complete. Each project relates back to a different part of the unit.
This unit is geared towards a classroom, but is easily adapted to a homeschooler...in fact, I originally created it for mine! Every research activity is done solo and the PowerPoint can easily be used just for one or a handful of kiddos. This is also easily adaptable, in case you want to change anything for your students, but is no-prep, ready to go, as it is!
