Publisher's Description of Medieval History Portfolio Classic Kit

Develop a habit of inquiry by researching, reading from quality sources, writing on topic, and illustrating with relevant images. Be the journalist. Tell the story.

Product Description:

The Medieval History Portfolio "classic" offers a notebooking approach, and can be used alongside various non-fiction sources and history read-aloud sources such as Story of the World and Mystery of History.

The body of the Medieval History Portfolio, printed on cardstock paper, is divided into chapters of commonly studied topics, such as The Early Christians; The West Roman Empire; The Celtic Tribes; The Germanic Tribes; Frankish Kingdom, Kingdom of England, Kingdom of France, & Kingdom of Germany; the East Roman Empire/Byzantium; and The World. The attractively formatted Portfolios contain an entirely unique system of "image boxes" and "text boxes" which support and showcase the student's work. Black-line maps are provided within each chapter.

Companion products are the History Portfolio Full Color Reference Maps, and the History Portfolio Teacher's Guide. The Teacher's Guide contains specific suggestions of what to research, read, and write about for each and every "text box" in the Portfolio. In addition, cut and paste material found in the Teacher's Guide includes numerous black line illustrations for the "image boxes" and plenty of puzzles and activities to reinforce and review.

Each Portfolio is designed for use by an individual and will become a unique record of the student's journey through history... a keepsake and a "book to treasure!"

*For children in grades K - 3, consider the Medieval History Portfolio Junior. The Junior Portfolio contains fewer notebooking pages than the "classic" version, and therefore requires much less writing. Notebooking activities focus on observation, comprehension, penmanship, copy work, memory work, beginning writing skills, and plenty of games and puzzles for reinforcement and review. NOTE: The Juniors contain the same chapter titles in the same order as the Classic volumes, allowing older children using the Classic volumes and younger children using the Juniors to work side by side.

Offering the ultimate in convenience, the kit contains a Medieval History Portfolio "classic, the Medieval History Portfolio Teacher's Guide, a set of the Medieval Full Color Maps to use as a reference while completing the Portfolio, a set of 12 colored pencils, and a pack of multi-color cardstock paper useful for completing the notebooking pages.

Category Description for Classic Kits

Classic kits include Classic Portfolio, Teacher's Guide, map set, colored pencils, and ten sheets of 65 lb. multicolored card stock paper.

Why did you choose this?

Lap books seem to be a great way for my son to do any subject. He likes to see his work over the course of the semesters and enjoys doing map work and other activities.

when looking for the nature portfolio i saw this and am really interested in what it is like

I knew it was written by an Orthodox Christian so it wouldn't be Protestant biased.
