Welcome to the fascinating world of Engineering! This unit study is designed to guide learners aged 6-12 on an in-depth exploration that will not only provide a thorough study of the subject at hand, but will also involve students in the process through immersive, experiential learning opportunities. Consistent, gentle, and easy-to-follow structure encourages internalization and personal connection with each module.

This unit study will be delivered to your door in printed format as a coil-bound, full-color book with a glossy cover ready for use. . The book is non-consumable, meaning that writing will be done in a separate notebook or in your preferred Harbor Sprout Companion Notebook available in either or format. Please note that once processed, print materials are not eligible for return, refund, or exchange.

Be sure to add the Engineering Primary Level Workbook, available in both and formats! These workbooks are not required to complete the unit study; however, they add enriching dimension to the learning experience.

This unit study includes 22 modules. Each module is made up of 3 parts:

Information: This is the reading portion of the module. The reading can be completed independently or with help from an adult. You may take one day or more to complete the reading.
Notebooking Prompts: In the notebooking section of each module, you will have the opportunity to reflect on your reading in a way that is unique to you.
Activities: Each module contains a selection of activities and hands-on learning experiences to choose from. These activities span the range of learning styles and are meant to be completed at whatever pace feels most comfortable to you.

The modules in the Engineering Primary Level Unit Study include:

Module 1: The History of Engineering
Module 2: The Engineering Design Process
Module 3: Simple Machines
Module 4: An Engineer's Toolbox
Module 5: Architectural Engineering
Module 6: Bridges
Module 7: Hydrology
Module 8: Robotic Engineering
Module 9: Mechanical Engineering
Module 10: Aerospace Engineering
Module 11: Aerodynamics
Module 12: Acoustical Engineering
Module 13: Communication Engineering
Module 14: Civil Engineering
Module 15: Biomechanical Engineering
Module 16: Geotechnical Engineering
Module 17: Natural Engineering
Module 18: Environmental Engineering
Module 19: Reverse Engineering
Module 20: The Latest Engineering Technology
Module 21: Magnetism
Module 22: Thermodynamics in Engineering

Each module has a list of pertinent subject applications including science, nature study, language arts, writing, history, geography, art, music, math, and life skills. Writing and language arts are also inherently woven into the whole unit through notebooking. Enjoy your adventure with Engineering!
