Human Odyssey and World History Detective - Matchups!

[SunnyDays]

It looks like there are several of us who will be using Human Odyssey Volume 1 along with CTC's World History Detective this fall.  I went through tonight and tried to match HO's chapters to WHD's exercises.  I took HO straight through beginning to end, and WHD jumps around a bit.  Some HO chapters have a bunch of WHD readings, some have none, so spread them out, skip some, whatever works. The WHD designation gives the number of the reading/exercise, not page numbers. 

 

Some WHD readings did not get matched up; we may skip these, or use them along with the reading of unit introductions/conclusions.  And a few toward the end (early Americas) may be appropriate for future HO volumes, I'm not sure.  You may find that a reading fits better with a different chapter, but it's a starting point.  If you have suggestions or find that I mixed something up, please let me know.  Hope this helps someone!!
