We are beginning our unit on China. Below are the books we will use through out this study. There will be more added as we go through this study.
China-The Land by Bobbie Kalman
China-The People by Bobbie Kalman
The Great Wall by Elizabeth Mann
Count Your Way through China by Jim Haskins
A is for Asia by Cynthia Chin Lee
The Children of China by Matti A. Pitkanen
Children of the World:China
This morning we watched a movie titled Mysteries of Asia: Secrets of the Great Wall. This was a very good movie. The children learned how and why the Great Wall was built. They also learned that many lives were lost during that time as well.
We will be learning all about the Chinese culture, people, homes and just everyday life. This comes at a great time for us. Next month we will be having a missionary family who will be going to China.
I will post any websites I find useful for the study. Some of the stuff we have has come from our curriculum My Father's World.
One website all about China we have really enjoyed looking at is China Pictures. There is a lot of information on there. Just be aware of some of the advertisements.
