Unit Study: Backyard Chickens!

---

We created our Backyard Chicken Unit Study over the winter in 2022. Since then, our study has been used by hundreds of families, co-ops, and charter schools! Our study is fun, engaging, informative, and easy to follow! We have created seven lessons with only one required book, Chickenology: The Ultimate Encyclopedia. It is the perfect thematic unit for grades K-5! Our four children helped create this study, and we are excited to share it with your family!
