Description
This one-year world history course covers history
chronologically from Creation to the present, highlighting key places, people,
and events. There are 150 lessons for one year of study, with each lesson
taking 45+ minutes to complete. The course requires six components which
are available in a Curriculum Package: the vibrantly illustrated and readable
Textbooks (two parts); the Map Book, the Timeline Book (specifically created to reinforce lessons through labeling and coloring activities); and Our
Creative World (a collection of historic documents). The Answer Key includes
all answers to the text lesson assignments, Student Workbook questions and
Lesson Review activities. It also includes teaching notes for the recommended
literature.
Reinforce the lessons with either the Student Workbook (5th-6th grade) or the Lesson Review (7th-8th grade). Both include additional daily lesson assignments, unit tests, and questions about the recommended literature. Literature-based questions are primarily recall based, with a few higher-level thinking questions included.
