Jane Goodall, Primatologist
2-WEEK LITERATURE-BASED UNIT STUDY
FREE
from BookShark
DESIGNED FOR AGES 6-12
Are you homeschooling an animal-lover or budding naturalist? If yes, this free unit study is ideal for your family!
Based on a kid-friendly biography of Jane Goodall, the British primatologist, this literature-based unit study is jam packed with 8 days of reading assignments, 32 vocabulary words, dozens of discussions questions (and answers), 9 printable activity sheets, multiple hands-on activity suggestions, linked videos, a letter writing assignment, and more!
Biographies teach kids more than history, science, and geography. They help kids develop a growth mindset as they see their heroes struggle and persevere to overcome setbacks.
In this unit study, you and your children will
- learn where chimpanzees live and mark the locations on a map
- discover the unique ways chimps behave—including one groudbreaking observation that Jane Goodall made
- find out what naturalists do and why they are important
- discover how to contribute to conservation efforts
