I’d love some history suggestions for countries other than the US and Europe. Africa/Asia/pre-Colombus North America/South America resources would be great! Texts/books/etc. I don’t think I’ve ever seen an actual curriculum for any of these areas.
If you were going to make up a class for Ancient Egypt, what resources would you include? It’s for a senior. He needs no credits, it would just be for fun. What books, lectures, videos would you include?
I'm looking to spread American history over two years to go more in depth. What did you use for American? I'd like to add in books that tell about the time period too.
I'm looking for ... something different I think. We've been using Horizons, however I don't feel like there is ANY explanation for the student. Not even in the teachers guide. I feel like the TG is more of a have the student review flash cards, etc.
What math actually has some explanation written the student? A third grader if thst makes s difference.
For s student that is so-so with math? He has hated Saxon, life of Fred, and teaching textbooks if that helps. Lol
Derek Owens looks good but it is pricy each month!! Are the videos only available with the monthly fee?
For your dc, what would you use? I'm thinking about using Saferstein's text with the online questions and quizzes. I'm looking to add some "true crime" books. The Poisoners Handbook looks interesting. What crimes would you add? The Lindbergh kidnapping? Thoughts?
I'm looking for craft kits for American history for a 2nd grader. I don't want paper or a book of ideas. I'm looking for an actual kit with everything needed inside:). Anyone have some great suggestions? I saw a link for the home and hearts one but they no longer make them. Id love something like that!
I'm interested in the most unusual courses you've seen or made up yourself? I'm looking to have a fun year next year with not using straight textbooks. What classes have you designed? High school and grade school!
