Nutcracker Unit Study

I'm happy to be able to give you a Christmas gift:  A Nutcracker Unit Study.

We are using this over the next two weeks in our homeschool.  My children are 11 and 8.  I've created activities for the younger children and for middle grades.

notebooking

arts & crafts

book & video links

analysis of the music

vocabulary

This is just some of what is included in this study.  

The full table of contents:

My children have already been working... I especially love the Nutcracker drawing tutorial and the notebooking pages.

I hope you enjoy this unit study!  Nothing does my heart more good than to hear my children humming Tchaikovsky's music, or excitedly chattering with each other about their favorite parts of the ballet.  

Music is a gift that last a lifetime.  

Give this gift to your children this holiday season.

Thanks for sharing! I've been excited since you mentioned it on the Facebook page yesterday - my kids love The Nutcracker!

I think I'll try this out. The family might like it. I remember reading the Nutcracker a few years back. Was surprised at how "gruesome" it was, in a wood sort of way. :)

I'm so thankful to have happened across your unit study. My little dancer is going to be performing in the Nutcracker this December and your study will be the perfect way to tackle homeschool on that big, exciting week leading up to upcoming night and performance weekend. :)
