[American history--alongside SOTW? Take a year off from SOTW? Recommendations?]

I've been thinking about this a lot as well... we started our History rotation late so my ds will be in 5th (beginning logic) and my dd will be in 3rd when we reach the Early Modern period. I think I've decided I'll just use SOTW as my spine, but when I reach the US history parts I'll just take however much time I want/need to go more in depth. There are so many great resources to use for Early American history, I'll probably use excerpts from History of US, and focus on logic stage type study with my ds and include lots of biographies etc. :)
