Mrs Amandas Adventures (TpT Seller)
I loved this unit and so did the kids. I got great feedback on my end of the unit bulletin board!
The only thing I would say that could make this the ultimate around the world unit is to add some powerpoints or some videos. I had to go online to get more resources.
Overall....excellent. I would recommend this to anyone!

This is simply amazing! It is nearly 1:00 am and I cannot pull myself away from this unit! It has beautiful illustrations and practical games with easy directions. Activities can either be for small groups or whole group. They are extremely age appropriate for kindergarten and cover many of the most needed commom core standards. I can't say enough on how impressed I am with this unit.
