Publisher's Description of BiblioPlan Ancient Cool History for Middles, 2nd Edition
BP Cool Histories are history workbooks filled with fun questions and activities. The job of answering questions on paper helps students in so many ways! First, it takes them back through the chapter they've just read—which helps them remember more of it. Second, it tests how well they understand what they've read. Third, it forces them to take a closer look at the chapter as they search for the answers they need.
Cool History for Middles is a versatile workbook designed for a wide age range. Its questions come in two kinds, with about 18 Questions from the Readings and about 6 Challenge Questions. Most Questions from the Readings ask for short answers, and are for all students in the age range. Parents and teachers who want more can add the Challenge Questions, which require more writing. Each assignment closes with an Optional Bonus Question/Activity that requires a bit of research.
Category Description for BiblioPlan: Ancient History
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.
