Alexander Graham Bell Unit Study.

Personal Use Download. This item is for personal use only. You may use it for your own children as needed. If you are using the curriculum in a multiple-family co-op group or a school class, you will need to purchase the Classroom version of the curriculum.

Age Group: These unit studies are intended for elementary students ages Kindergarten - 5th or 6th grades.

Each of my scientist & inventor unit studies contains educational lessons, activities and a fun lap book that your students will work on as they progress through the study. The lessons also include book reports, vocabulary, character traits of these important figures, and critical thinking skills. I currently have 7 studies in this series. These studies are geared towards grades Kindergarten-4th, but can probably be adapted for older students as well.

Alexander Graham Bell was born March 3, 1847 in Edinburgh, Scotland. He worked diligently to help hearing impaired learn to communicate, as well as spent his life researching hearing and speech to help with hearing devices. All of his work lead him to be awarded the first US patent for the telephone in 1876. He worked as a teacher at what is now the Horace Mann School for the Deaf in Boston, Massachusetts where he helped provide training for teachers there he introduced the Visual Speech System.

Although Bell died in 1922, his name and works lived on. In 2006 Bell was named one of the 10 greatest Scottish scientists in history after having been listed in the National Library of Scotland’s Scottish Science Hall of Fame.

This study uses the Alexander Graham Bell scientists and inventors series by Mike Venezia, but students are welcome to use any other researched information they can find as well. I would highly encourage older students to do some independent research on their scientist and inventor prior to completing their final report.
