Adding geography and map work to your history studies is quick and easy with the Hands-On Maps workbooks. This workbook follows the reading and terminology found in the Consider the Years student text. Each map is labeled with what week it corresponds to in the text. While these are the same maps provided in the younger workbook, these maps have less, to no, notable areas documented for students. Students are labeling everything on their maps now. Each map will also include a Challenge question to test students’ comprehension and geography abilities. Included on these maps is a Geography to Know section to help each student study and prepare for geography exams. All weeks will have at least one map to go alongside the history studies. Maps are reproducible for immediate family use only. An answer PDF is emailed after your order is processed that includes answers and exams. 44 pgs, spiral-bound. ~Rebecca
BP Hands-On Maps are geography workbooks that go with the lessons in Remember the Days and the Companion. Why do history students need geography workbooks? Because for BP students, geography and history go hand-in-hand. Map work shows students where history happened, and how geography can affect history.
Hands-On Maps for Advanced are more serious maps for Companion readers. They cover the same areas as the middles maps, but with longer directions and more detail. Our advanced maps include tests for parents and teachers who need them.
In 2022, the Ancients History Year One curriculum received a significant scope and sequence revision. The rest of the program will soon follow the same format. You have the option to choose from two hardcover textbooks: Remember the Days for grades K-7 and Consider the Years for 8-12th grade students. A separate spine program will also be available for your history reading components. The Year One study walks alongside Biblical history as the framework to what is happening in mostly the Middle East and the Mediterranean area, which makes up the geography focus for this year.
This 6-Unit (34 weeks) Ancient History study starts with the creation story and early civilizations (Egyptian, Sumerian, Harappan, Chinese), continues with Egypt, Assyria, and Israel studies, divided Israel, Greeks versus Persians, the Roman Republic, and closes with the Roman Empire and Messiah. While these 6 units are the focus of study, intermixed throughout the program, in the appropriate time eras, are studies on cultures from China, India, the Americas, and Africa beyond Egypt. Scripture is studied against the backdrop of the history learned each week.
The Family Guide will take you step-by-step through text readings from either one of the two textbooks. Further literature, audio recordings, videos, maps, and activities are all found in individual spiral-bound books. Material found within each spiral-bound book may be reproduced for family needs. Select exactly what you want to cover with this program for each student (K-12) while studying Ancient History together.
