southmetromom Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 I have been considering TruthQuest for American History this upcoming year. (My dc are 10 and 7 yo). I saw at it at a conference last weekend, then I looked at ATTA, which I already own. Am I missing something? It didn't seem significantly different. (I confess, I didn't *study* the TQ materials). For those who have used TQ (or just relied on ATTA) -- what does TQ have than ATTA doesn't have? Thanks, Sandy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mama25angels Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 TQ has Christian commentary and ATTA is a booklist with reviews of the books. Other than that i'm not really sure! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caroline4kids Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 I look at All Through the Ages as a "forever book" for all school years. I think TQ has more commentary for the stories and bible together and is more of a one year resource. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narrow Gate Academy Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 TruthQuest is much more detailed and has the book lists divided out into topics in roughly chronological order with a lot more book choices. The commentary ties them nicely together. ATTA lumps the books together by time period, but does not list them chronologically within a given period. With the excellent timelines that are included, you could put them order yourself. Personally I love both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
