UNIT DESCRIPTION:
This unit will be great for those who have professional cameras AND those who only have smartphones. We will have customization for both. It’s going to be such a fun unit with photo walks, picture challenges, photo journalism, a silent film option, and even the opportunity for a camera dissection! Types of photography, lighting, aperture, vantage point, white balance… and even some fun insights into old fashioned (historical) film vs. digital! At just six lessons, it will be such a fantastic and easy unit to do at any time. It’ll also be the perfect way to keep your family actually learning and excited about science, history, Bible, and art…. just by nature of the topic!

DIFFERENCES FROM THE NORM
This unit is a mini unit and does NOT contain a Core Connections Companion, though it still covers an immense amount of science and history! It should only be used as an addition to your core school work

This was such an enjoyable unit for me as an adult who wanted to learn more on how to use my camera to it’s fullest potential. I was used to just using the standard setting, but through this unit I learned so much in how to use the various settings on my camera to capture fun photos. My children also enjoyed this unit. They especially enjoyed some of the activities including a photo challenge, using glow sticks in the dark to create neat photographs, and turning a room into a camera obscura. As my children enter into high school I will revisit this unit study to do with my children who are interested in photography as I know they will learn a lot once again from these lessons.

I completed this unit with kids ages 9 & 11. We were able to do most of the activities with an iPhone and a couple of free apps. The information is explained in a way that is easily understood by all ages. So much is learned by doing just the basics of each lessons, but there are also opportunities to dig deeper. I highly recommend this unit!
