Horse unit study resources

We are ready to get back to work after a much needed break.  We will start off with our favorite animal.  You guessed it, the horse and anything horse-like.  My kiddos already know a lot about horses just because they love them and wanted to learn everything about them but we have never taken on the topic as an official school topic so at the request of C12, we are now doing just that.  They started learning about horses when they received a horse for Christmas, not only did they get one horse, they got 2 horses.  YEP!  We adopted a pregnant horse.  What are the odds of that?  The birth of little Charlie Rose was a really exciting day and a day I know my kids will never forget! 

We will be using Amanda Bennett's Horse unit study as our main guide.

Here are a few of the resources that we have accumulated over the years.















We also have almost everything you can put a horse's picture on, T-shirts, mugs, blankets, notebooks, screen savers, pencils, pillowcases, picture frames, mouse pad, and I just cannot go on.  We have a playroom full of acrylic horse, plastic horse, stuffed horses, stick horses, painted horses, horse posters and calendars,  fuzzy horses, etc............  They even have used horseshoes as decorations in their rooms.  So, I think you can conclude that we love horses.  You may have figured that out just by the name of our blog. 

This should be a fun unit to work on.  It will certainly be an easy one for me to teach.
