QuirkyKapers Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 is easy, is mostly an overview just to get their interest peaked. Also, looking for something that incorporates what was happening Biblically with other world history events. Nothing too indepth or preachy. Hope that isn't asking too much?:) Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trivium Academy Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 How about the James Baldwin books, Fifty Famous Stories Retold and his other two through the year? http://www.yesterdaysclassics.com/catalog/displaycatalog.php?catalog=world Stories of Great Americans for Little Americans by Edward Eggleston is also available you can see inside all the books at the website.

Aletheia Academy Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Baldwin's Fifty Famous Stories is great! You might also consider using a Child's History of the World by Virgil Hillyer as a RA here and there. Those 2 resources are exactly what we will be using for our world history survey this year.

mommysweird Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 My Father's World does what you're looking for, but it may be more on the preachy side for you. The website is http://www.mfwbooks.com - check it out and see if it might fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mom31257 Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 I'm doing MOH Vol 1 with my K son. We've only been doing school for 2 weeks, but so far so good. There are 3 lessons a week with activities for 3 different age groups. There is map work, memory card, time line suggestions, etc. I'm not having him do the memory cards or time line. I felt like that would be overwhelming to him. I was looking for something he could do with his big sister. It comes in 5 volumes (3 are published and she's working on the other 2), so you could cover all of history by the end of 4th. It is chronological and you study biblical and world history at the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
