All-In-One Programs

There are a number of programs that look like unit studies, yet lack a unifying theme. Instead, projects, assignments, readings, etc., for each study area are outlined according to a schedule. The benefit of this approach is in the time it saves us in creating lesson plans—it is all done for us. We only need gather the books and materials needed for each lesson.
