What is this unit study about?

This Amusement Park unit goes well beyond rides. Students will explore the history of pleasure gardens and world's fairs, discover how flat rides and water rides use physics to create thrills safely, learn about the careers that keep a park running, investigate the science of midway games, and think critically about how parks are designed to create a special experience for every guest. Every activity is rooted in real facts about how amusement parks work — and guaranteed to make the next park visit feel like a field trip.

Throughout the unit, your child will:

  • ✔ Practice counting, addition, and number sense
  • ✔ Strengthen reading comprehension and vocabulary
  • ✔ Explore the history of amusement parks from pleasure gardens to modern theme parks
  • ✔ Discover how different types of rides use physics to create thrills safely
  • ✔ Learn about the many careers that keep an amusement park running
  • ✔ Investigate park food, games, shows, and the science behind them
  • ✔ Develop critical thinking through comparison and cause-and-effect activities
  • ✔ Design their own original amusement park

Each day includes clear instructions and low-prep activities so you can focus on guiding your child — not deciphering complicated directions.
