Adams' Chart or Map of History Casebound
This gorgeous, full-color timeline chart is bound inside an attractive vintage-style book and is truly one of a kind! The book opens to reveal the sturdy poster-board type pages with a slight gloss finish, which are folded up accordion style inside (13" x 27" closed). The 21 panels can be flipped through as pages of a book or can fold out to an amazing 23-foot-long timeline to be studied for an overall, big picture view of history. Panels feature easy-to-read print and detailed, artistic drawings that really bring history to life. Beginning with creation in 4004 B.C. and going to 1870, the large format of this timeline is packed full of interesting insights, beautifully organized with educational charts, references, and tid-bits of helpful information. This is an educational resource you will find yourself referencing time and time again. Included, is a 64-page booklet which serves as a key to explain the layout, color coding, and symbolism that's been delightfully woven into the timeline and charts. Expanding even further on the history of the different countries and cultures, the booklet is a fascinating way to glean the most from your timeline.
For those wanting this exact timeline to be used as a wall display, the inside panels are also available without the hard cover attached. ~ Nancie
Probably the best pre-printed timeline available to homeschoolers today, this is a visually and educationally amazing resource. The same basic timeline as the ever-so-popular but now out of print Wall Chart of World History, this one does have a few changes. First, it is bigger much bigger. Measuring 13" x 27" closed, this huge, horizontal timeline unfolds accordion style to an incredible 25 feet! Second, it starts in the same place (Creation: 4004 BC) buts ends sooner, in 1870 with the 19th president Rutherford Hayes. Third, this edition from Master Books has had all of the evolutionary content that was in the last couple editions of the Wall Chart removed (quite an improvement!). Fourth, the specific country timelines that had been on the reverse side of the timeline have also been removed. Apart from those four changes, this is still the same easy-to-follow, packed-with-information, chronologically-flowing timeline/wall chart that so many enjoy. It really does give the big picture of history, while at the same time focusing on a biblical world view. It is available in two formats: a durable, casebound edition and a "panels only" edition that would be perfect for the wall, since it comes without the cover. Yes, there is more. Both editions come with a handy 64-page key that gives information on how to read the chart and details the more prominent points and events in both biblical/Jewish and non-biblical history. The available teacher's guide helps you get the most out of this incredible resource. With an introduction and panel-by-panel overview, and activities for church, school, homeschool, or just plain interest, this time chart will be opened and all the more accessible. For those who are really keen, the teacher's guide also includes a table of higher order thinking skills of Blooms Taxonomy, and test pages with matching, multiple choice, true/false, fill in the blank, and short answer questions. Answers are included.
I can tell you from experience that you will find this to be one of the most enriching, most satisfying, and most useful reference tools you could add to your homeschool library. ~ Zach
