Download & Go Series: Whale Tales is a 83 page lesson plan that encompasses all aspects of learning about the giant animals—Whales. This lesson plan includes:
Daily Objectives
Book Suggestions
Introduction to Lapbooking
Day 1—What is a Whale?
Day 2—Getting to Know Whales
Day 3—Where are the Whales?
Day 4—The Science of Whales
Fun Family Ideas
This series is a full color, one-week in length comprehensive teaching tool that requires absolutely no preparation. There are a few inexpensive supplies needed for completion of this program, such as a file folder, glue stick, scissors (or safety scissors, depending on child’s age), brass brads, and either crayons or markers.
In Whale Tales children will investigate whales and learn about what they eat, what sounds it makes, where it lives, what the Bible says about Whales (including the story of Jonah), the anatomy of whales, the different kinds of whales, the history of whales, and in addition the geography of oceans.
This Series is designed to teach unit studies to all ages of children. The ones I used it on were age eight and age five. I didn’t have any problem making the subject matter adaptable for the five year old, while allowing my eight year old to use the pages I printed. I did make additional photocopies of some of the pages so both girls could use them. An answer key is included, as well as web sites you can visit for more information.
If you are looking for an easy, colorful, relatively cheap answer for unit studies about whales then Download & Go series Whale Tales is something to consider. Available at: www.downloadngo.com/WhaleTales.

· Resource list for optional further study.
These studies each have a great list of books that you can use to enrich your learning, but they are not required. This study is complete on its own. If desired, find books easily at your local library using the title and ISBN information for suggested optional resources.
· Interactivity built in with hyperlinks embedded right in the study.
All the research and preparation have been done! Enjoy a variety of multimedia selections, such as video clips and animations, plus educational and craft sites. You'd spend all week searching if you had to find all these great links yourself!
