Hi,
This year we will be reading both Charlottes Web and Mr Poppers Penguins and I was wondering if anyone knows of any good Unit Studies I could use with them?
I am looking for something that does not just focus solely on the text but branches out perhaps into looking at spiders or learning more about penguins?
I noticed Memoria press has some literature studies but I think it may just focus on vocabulary and spelling etc…
If anyone has any suggestions that would be appreciated. Thank you
Erica sells the literature packets for both of those books (and many others too!).
In addition to Erica’s. This site has a lot of good lapbooks and unit studies. They’re free too.

The following suggested site is a great site in general for books, and I know they specifically have a Mr. Poppers Penguins “unit”. Its not your traditional “homeschool-type-lapbooking-unit-study” type thing, but it is a great resource none-the-less. I have not noticed or looked to see if they had a Charlottes Web, but they probably do. Once you go to the site Growing Book by Book ( [growingbookbybook.com][1] ), go to the Literacy Project button/tab and under that go to Family Dinner Book Club and then look for Mr. Poppers Penguins. Hope this resource helps!
