Really great resource for checking comprehension
I have a child that does not really love to discuss at length or participate in the "fun" extension activities that are often done alongside Story of the World. These quizzes are a simple way to check that he is reading the materials and understanding it. If you have a child that does well with routine and repeated style learning, these are the perfect companion for Story of the World. They would also be great for those doing activities and more in depth extensions.
Pulling out the test, grading and putting it into a portfolio is really simple! I love the perforated pages as my son hates writing in a book and using standalone sheets is important to us.

Why did you choose this?
Of course Story of the World is a very comprehensive text to start with, I am hoping that the tests will provide a nice opportunity for review of the concepts
Our family really enjoys the Story of the World series! We play the audio book at lunch or in the car, and we learn a lot!
I will be using this series with my children for the first time this upcoming school year, and I want access to the tests to review as we go along.
My son is taking this class in co-op and I wanted to be able to give him tests for grading purposes.
