Laura Corin Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I've just started following WTM and am wondering if there are any resource lists out there specifically adapted for children living in Great Britain? Not specifically, that I know of. I've used a lot of Galore Park products, but I also used some of the American/other resources, like Singapore Maths, Handwriting Without Tears, etc. Do ask if you have specific questions... I put together some extra material to beef up both the UK and US aspects of Story of the World. If you go to my old blog (in my signature) you will see the links in the right hand bar Regards Laura Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mumto2 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 We have used the library extensively to add more British History in. Many of the WTM materials are availiable through Conquest Books and Ichthus Press. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EMHE Posted February 26, 2014 Author Share Posted February 26, 2014 Thank you, mum! I was about to just order it all through Amazon (city library sadly lacking) but will go check out those suggestions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
horsellian Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Also, I don't know where in the UK you are, but it's probably worth investigating museums etc. in your local area/region - e.g. we live quite near Oxford, and the Ashmolean museum there has fantastic collections for many of the ancient civilisations discussed in SOTW1 (I've only got book 1, so I haven't investigated resources for the later books at all).

mumto2 Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Ichthus and Conquest do take their materials to a very limited number of conferences (like 3 places some years ;) ) around the country. Mainly to churches. You might want to inquire where they will be and go and look in person especially if you are just starting with young children. I went to one in Coventry two years ago, Bristol last year. I had fun shopping at both. :lol: Also when you are going anywhere loosely school field trip worthy look at the educational portion of the locations website. There is a wealth of stuff just waiting to be used. National Trust and English Heritage have pages of info for most sites which probably doesn't surprise you.
