We often hear from homeschool moms who love Download N Go (DNG) and love Unit Study Adventures (USA), and are trying to find ways to combine the two. Perhaps you are homeschooling several children of all ages. You want to use DNG with your younger children, but they're not age-appropriate for your 8th-grader. Yet, you desire to keep the subject matter of your homeschool similar for all of your children.
I thought I would put together some ideas for you to use, to make this process easier. I hope you find it useful! Each subject category will list one 4-week USA with 1-4 DNG units that will mesh well with them.
