JaneNickerson Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 I was wondering if anyone had a list of books they used organized by SOTW3 chapters. I am working on this in preparation for September. I am using the reading list in AG for SOTW3, but I was looking for "older" books to give ds12.5!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mallory Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 I have similar ages for SOTW 3 for next year. My 12yo is using the list from TWTM for 7th grade reading. This would just be a list of literature, but I find for the history reading, if she is doing extra Kingfisher or Usborne work, then the picture books will be fine. And often we all really want to see some of the things we have been learning about! I am just going to have her read through them in order. Many of them may take longer then the week we have scheduled for each chapter anyway. If she is off by a week or even a month, it won't be a big deal.

lovemyboys Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 I am using the reading list in AG for SOTW3, but I was looking for "older" books to give ds12.5!! http://www.redshift.com/~bonajo/history.htm Hope this link to Paula's archives works. It's a run down of books by period. I was using it to figure out which "older" books went with which decades so that I could do them as read-alouds for us.

Mom2boys Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 You can also look at Sonlight. www.Sonlight.com They schedule SOTW3 in Core 7, along with accompanying literature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarcyM Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 Hi Jane, I got your PM. I haven't completely assembled all my books, but I used the charts created by Laura in China and... oh my goodness.. Michelle, I think. Gracious, it was such a helpful list. I hope she'll speak up - and I apolgize. I deleted the email and now I can't remember. I'm sososo sorry! Laura's is on her blog - on homeschool blogger. Anyway, I will be listing my books, but I haven't gotten there yet, so I'll probably list them as I use them on my blog. Mine are 2nd and 3rd grade... so I know that doesn't help with your jr high student. :) Good Luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JaneNickerson Posted July 28, 2008 Author Share Posted July 28, 2008 Thanks Laura! The lists on your blog were helpful. I wish I was so organized. Thanks for helping me Darcy! I shall be checking out the barbarians book lists as we go through SOTW3 this year. I am trying to use the lists in TWTM but I wanted them to match younger dc's topics. Ds12 is wondering why I am on the computer every day studying history when it is supposed to be summer break. He says there is plenty of time for school prep....how little he knows about how much preparation us hs moms (and dads) do!!! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
