susanah4 Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 (edited) Both are by Walch Publishing. Need an easy to get through, hit the bullet points type U.S. History program for high school. Also looking at America from the Beginning. Edited May 6, 2017 by susanah4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MamaSprout Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 (edited) Short Lessons in US History is nice, but I don't think it could be more than a supplement, and even at that it would be a stretch to call it high school. ETA- do you need high school? I think the Power Basics would be a better choice, but my SIL did use it for her son with a lot of heavy supplementing.

PeterPan Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 (edited) What I liked about the Walch Power Basics stuff was the workbook. It really got them thinking and applying in an accessible, reasonable way. You could pair that with the Great Courses US History from Audible. The WPB text itself is going to be pretty bare bones. You can probably see samples on Rainbow. I got stuff cheap on amazon, iirc. Just saying you could flex it and use the components you like and turn it into what you like. I think the discussion or application, helping them be informed, discriminating voters and news consumers, is the important part.
