The CD includes each
lesson's text pages, project overview pages, and a wide variety of
masters for projects! Photos and drawings help illustrate the directions
for completing over 40 activities. Choose the projects that work best
for your family! Five "Project Days" are built into the schedule to help
allow for extra time to complete outstanding projects.
Also included are
teacher helps, resource lists, teacher keys, and a "guide-at-a-glance."
This one-page guide will allow the teacher to see the whole schedule of
upcoming topics and projects on one page. Tastefully laid out for
inclusion in your three-ring binder, this unit study will give both the
teacher and students a thorough, exciting adventure into the past!
My son absolutely hated history
before we started this. I was bound and determined this year to take a
more textbook approach. After a few months of that I realized that I
didn't even remember one single thing that we had been learning over the
past 3 months. So, then I started questioning my children about what we
had learned in history so far and they didn't remember anything either.
So, it was back to the drawing board to find something else. Our local
homeschool store recommended your program and I have to say that all 3
(13, 12, & 8) of my kids love it. My oldest son (13) said that for the
first time he actually feels like he is learning something about
history! - Terry Wallen

Included is a notebook
cover made to slip into the clear cover of your 3-ring binder. The art
is provided both in color and in black and white for the student to
color in.
The teacher's binder
will house the reading text, project direction pages, the
"Guide-at-a-Glance," teacher keys, and any of the other teacher helps.
The student will
accumulate many notebook items specific to each lesson. Included are
activities such as a Battle Map, samples of a compositor, a collection
of important documents, classic poems, a timeline, biographies of
soldiers, samples of secret messages, and more!
Suggested grades 3-8.
