Runningmom80 Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 (edited) I'd like my youngers to study US history with their brother, but I'm not going to use the same books as their older brother. What are your favorite resources for US history in the early grades? (1-3rd) TIA! ETA: secular please :) Edited June 27, 2016 by someonestolemyname Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FawnsFunnyFarm Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 The Complete Book of United States History is awesome along with Jennifer Armstrong's The American Story. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deerforest Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 USKids History (Brown Paper School) books and books from Betsy Maestro. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Momto6inIN Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 We're using the Betsy and Giulio Maestro series of books to cover early Americas through the American Revolution. They're really great! I haven't found anything comparable for the rest of American History though, so for that we've also got the Complete Book of US History and lots of misc books to round it out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Runningmom80 Posted June 27, 2016 Author Share Posted June 27, 2016 The maestro books look great! (I'm looking for relaxed at this point, it's for first grade.) Thank you for the great suggestions everyone! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EKS Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 I used K12's History K, which has a semester of US history and a semester of world geography when my son was 6. We really liked it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EKT Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 The American Story has been a nice, fun supplement to our American history studies! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
