Krisi in GA Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Notgrass American History and Stobaugh's American History, which would you choose and why? I'm trying to get a headstart on my planning for "next" year :) TIA, Kristi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grace is Sufficient Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 I'm not familiar with Stobaugh's history. I did not like his literature program, an opinion which is shared by others, but not all, on this board. I definitely prefer Notgrass. I thought the American history was excellent. I do not agree, however, that it's worth three credits. I might give half a credit for the Bible study, though it might need beefing up. We didn't do the Bible part. It gets a credit in history, but while the literature selections are good, there isn't much actual literary analysis, a skill that it's important for high schoolers to acquire.

Krisi in GA Posted January 12, 2011 Author Share Posted January 12, 2011 Thank you Debbie! What do you recommend for American lit? If you don't mind my asking, why don't you like Stobaugh's lit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
