Melissa B Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Does anyone have an historical fiction list to accompany the Veritas Press Self-paced history program - Old Testament and Ancient Egypt? I am looking for a list that provides in which weeks each book is read. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmseB Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 I think this may be what you're looking for. (it's a pdf) ETA: I should disclaim that I just googled "veritas press otae book schedule" and that's what came up in the results, so I'm not sure if it's proprietary to the course or not, but it is out there on their website and accessible without purchasing the course. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it the same if you did it from what the cards say, if you were not doing SP? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmseB Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Is it the same if you did it from what the cards say, if you were not doing SP? No. For example, my first card (Creation) lists several resources like: Bible Greenleaf Guide to OT, pg 1 Children's Ill. Bible, pgs. 18,19 Child's Story Bible, Pgs 3, 4 Journey Through the Bible, pgs. 10, 1 Streams of Civ, Vol 1, pgs 10-14 Plus, there is a Level 1 reading list for the SP course that is different than the PDF I found and it is for 2-4th grade, I think. The pdf I linked shows level 2, by I've had my son do that list because he's an advanced reader. I've only done the SP course, though, so overall I don't really know how it compares to their regular history program. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aloha2U Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Is it the same if you did it from what the cards say, if you were not doing SP? No, the books listed on the cards are your primary (non-fiction) resources for teaching/learning. I use these PDFs each year to keep track of my little man's independent (historical fiction) reading assignments. They can be used by the do-it-yourselfers or the Self-Pacers. There are Level 1 and Level 2 lists, according to one's reading ability/maturity level. They can be found in the VP_Elementary Yahoo group --> Files --> then select which year in the cycle (i.e. OTAE, etc.). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homeschoolmom3 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 We used easyclassical.com lesson plans because it includes SOW and VP along w/historical fiction for each time period. Worked great for us when we were just starting out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alisoncooks Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Yes, this is what I was looking for. Thanks! You can use this link to access the Level 1 list (for younger students). After clicking the link, go into the address bar and change the 2 to a 1. (Near the end of the address, near "PDF.") HTH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
