Now in a bound version, Story of the World student pages are a helpful addition when multiple students are working through the program together. While you can reproduce the activity pages for family use, there is a convenience in this bound edition of the student pages, the same pages found in the Activity Book. This book cannot be used without the Activity Book where all instruction and teacher material are found. The book is not 3-hole punched but does have perforated pages. These are all 1-sided, consumable student pages including games, maps, coloring pages, review cards, paper dolls, timelines and more. Before handing directly to students, check content on pages 16, 27, 57, 77, 81, 142, and 199 for sensitive information and deem if it is appropriate for your family. Simply rip out a page(s) if not appropriate. These student pages are no longer being printed in loose-leaf form. 248 pgs, pb. ~Rebecca

The Story of the World has been a fantastic curriculum for my children. It engages learning in many ways.
Having the pages already bound helps save me time and be organized for the days lesson.
