    We are a couple of weeks away from doing a unit study on Africa, and this unit will be our roadmap! I honestly was overwhelmed at first with the amount of information, the activities, and the online links in this unit, but then I remembered that we can always go back and do a more in-depth study in a few years. I love this curriculum!
