Tips for Creating Unit Studies?

Currently we are using Bookshark (secular Sonlight) for history and science but for next year I want to do history a little differently: I want to develop delight-directed unit studies for history but I’m a bit nervous as to how to go about drafting and creating our own unit study from scratch.

I have an idea of how I will go about it but I’d love to hear from some experienced parents…So, how do you go about creating a fun, exciting unit study and lesson plans? Tell me everything! :blush:
