ga girl Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Any of you ever use the teacher guides for this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pam in MA Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 I didn't use them at all, so I didn't bother with the rest. We really enjoyed the series and read the whole set aloud through the elementary/middle years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ria Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 My answer is the same as Pam's....we read them aloud when the kids were in elementary/middle school. Never used the teacher guides. Ria Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plansrme Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 the Sonlight discussion questions and the multiple choice tests. Highly recommend both. This was for a middle schooler. Terri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamommy Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 I'm thinking you might be in GA too based on your username. I'm using Hakim's series right now with my 7th grader. The GA pines state-wide system has a couple of the guides available so I ordered them inter-library loan. That way you can peak yourself for free. I understand that they are all laid out similiarly no matter what the volume. FWIW, after I peaked I decided to pass. We are having discussions on 2 chapters a day. I read ahead of dd. We are outlining important events and adding to our big, multi-year timeline. I'm doing some map work that I come up with on our own. We throw in a few living books and call it done :-).

MamaT Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 My three youngest children are currently reading through these, but I do not use the teacher guides. We just read/discuss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFSinIL Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 I have bought the worksheet sets from Oxford U. Press for my 7th grader to fill out/answer/discuss (depends on the worksheet). I had the teacher guides for some of the books but they seemed more for classroom use or older kids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hilary in MI Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Here's a link to a thread about the guides and other supplemental resources for A History of US: http://www.welltrainedmind.com/forums/showthread.php?t=15173 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grace Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 I have bought the worksheet sets from Oxford U. Press for my 7th grader to fill out/answer/discuss (depends on the worksheet). I had the teacher guides for some of the books but they seemed more for classroom use or older kids. Can you tell me more about the "worksheets" you used? I can't find any info on the Oxford Press site. All I see is the teachers guides. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dopeyfav Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 I checked out the previous thread & visited this link http://www.hewitthomeschooling.com/b...gle.asp?i=2852, the booklet is on sale for $5.00, but the shipping is $7.00. It seems ridiculous to me & I can't seem to find it anywhere else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't find it on their website and I called and left a message without a response. Or does anyone one have these worksheets you wish to sell?

JFSinIL Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 I checked and for most of the volumes the workbooks no longer seem to be available. Bummer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grace Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Thanks for checking on it for me. Sorry to hear they are no longer available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mom2abcd Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 (edited) I checked and for most of the volumes the workbooks no longer seem to be available. Bummer. Look for Blackline Masters. http://www.oup.com/us/catalog/general/subject/HistoryAmerican/?view=usa&ci=9780195129342 They're not at amazon anymore. You can see samples at a link here: http://www.oup.com/us/collections/historyofus/series/resources/?view=usa Edited February 28, 2009 by mom2abcd added sample link Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grace Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 Thanks! I will go look at them. Thanks again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFSinIL Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 Oxford U Press has a strange website - now the link above goes to the blackline masters for book 5 but I can not find any way to access the materials for other books (and I need the blackline stuff for book 8 soon). #$%^&*( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jane in NC Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 Oxford U Press has a strange website - now the link above goes to the blackline masters for book 5 but I can not find any way to access the materials for other books (and I need the blackline stuff for book 8 soon). #$%^&*( I'd give them a phone call. Oxford has sent me the teacher's books for their Latin curriculum for free. They do not post these materials in their catalog so that the answer keys are not easily available to students. Best, Jane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
