Celebrate the season with our All About Autumn Unit Study Kit!
Centered around the book The Little Yellow Leaf by Carin Berger, this unit invites kids to explore the science, stories, and sensory wonders of autumn through immersive, woodland-inspired lessons. From changing leaves to animal adaptations, this fall-themed unit is full of cozy moments and engaging hands-on learning experiences.
Your kids will explore seasonal changes, plant science, animal habitats, and autumn traditions through activities like:
- Discover why leaves change color
- Compare deciduous and coniferous trees
- Explore woodland animals and winter preparation
- Identify the parts of a mushroom
- Learn about the apple tree life cycle
- Explore the story of Johnny Appleseed
- Investigate pumpkins and seasonal harvests
- Create autumn-inspired art and activities
And more!
Whether they’re sorting leaves, studying woodland habitats, or exploring the science behind changing seasons, your learners will build a deeper understanding of autumn—while creating meaningful family memories along the way.
This unit study includes 25+ activities, organized into eight easy-to-follow, open-and-go lessons. Schoolhouse Discoveries hands-on unit studies are designed for homeschool families and can serve as a core Science and Social Studies curriculum for grades K–4 or a supplement for 5–6th grade. Each unit also weaves in Language Arts, Math, Art, STEM, Sensory Play, Cooking, Health, and Movement.
By using multiple themed kits throughout the year, families can build a complete, well-rounded curriculum rooted in hands-on, family-style learning.

Learning Tips
Learning Tips
We’ve divided the learning experiences into eight sections, and we recommend doing the activities in the order suggested as some build upon the next. However, you don’t need to complete all the lesson activities at once if that’s too much for your schedule. Just pause and pick up where you left off next time. Doing these activities two days a week will take four weeks to complete the unit. The activities in this kit were designed for K to 4th graders. But we know kids are at all different levels and interests, so feel free to skip or add-to an activity if it isn’t right for your child(ren). That’s what Schoolhouse Discoveries are all about - having fun learning and finding ways that best fit your needs.
