Description
Publisher's Description of Story of the World Volume 4 Student Pages Looseleaf
Consumable sheets from the Activity Book for The Story of the World, Vol. 4.
If you've already purchased the Activity Book, you're free to make copies for your family to use. Many parents find it easier to simply use these pre-copied sheets.
If you already own the Activity Book for Volume 4, then you already have one set of Student Pages in the back of the Activity Book and do not need to purchase an additional set of Student Pages if you have only one student.
The instructions for the parent or teacher are not included in these Student Pages. Those instructions can only be found in the Activity Book.
Did you know that, although the Volume 4 Activity Book doesn't have coloring pages (since it was designed for slightly older students), we have a pack of nothing but coloring pages to accompany it?
Category Description for The Story Of The World (Elementary Grades)
The Story of the World is a 4-volume series that will get you EXCITED about history! The engaging narrative guides you, story-by-story, through chronological world history—providing important context to make history relatable AND memorable for kids. Each level consists of a Text, Activity Book, and optional Tests and Audio CD. History’s overarching story is broken up as follows:
Volume 1: Ancient Times covers history from the earliest Nomads to the last Roman Emperor
Volume 2: Middle Ages spans the Dark Ages through the Renaissance
Volume 3: Early Modern Times extends from the Holy Roman Empire to the Gold Rush
Volume 4: Modern Age covers history from the Victorian Empire to the fall of the USSR
This series makes for an excellent homeschool world history curriculum. Perfect for multi-level learning, short chapters in each Text are wonderful to read aloud as a family or can be read independently by older students. Black-and-white illustrations and maps throughout each volume enhance learning, and appendix sections provide a timeline, list of included maps, and pronunciation guide to people, places, and events in the book. Optional Audio CDs allow you to listen to the text as read by Jim Weiss, a professional storyteller.
The Text is not a traditional textbook. Rather, it contains the reading material for this history curriculum and it is intended to be used alongside the Activity Book to complete a full and well-rounded one-year history and geography study.
After reading through a chapter in the Text, simply flip to the corresponding chapter in the Activity Book and choose from the options available to find what best fits your child’s needs and learning style. For example, there are comprehension questions, narration exercises, map and geography activities, coloring pages, suggested additional history and literature readings, and multi-sensory projects to reinforce the reading in the text. You get to choose!
There are about 150 consumable student pages in each activity book. These include the coloring sheets, maps, games, and other paper activities, which are reproducible within families, though extra sets of Student Pages are available for purchase.
Each activity book also contains many hands-on projects that are user-friendly and allow kids to experience history in unique ways! They will have the chance to do everything from building a hut to making their own cuneiform tablets, mummifying a chicken, baking an African or Greek feast, creating purple dye, erupting a volcano, making an Olympic wreath, crafting a Native American sand painting, and much more!
The optional Tests and Answer Key book offers a test, with answers, for each chapter.
Story of the World curriculum is flexible! Although designed for elementary students in grades 1-4, the text is often used by older students, along with the map work, additional readings, and other exercises in the Activity Book, which can extend the learning to a much higher level. You decide how much to do!

- Basic Packages include the Text, Activity Book, and Tests
- Combo Packs add Student Pages to the Basic Package
