History of US

A friend of mine is using this (and core 100) with her daughter and was wondering if there are tests, or worksheets or something with written work already done that she could give her daughter. She works and homeschools so is looking for something workbooky to help her. I knew the hive would know!;);)

Here is one I know of:

It seems like someone else has them to but I am not sure.

Here's a book of tests for the whole set.

A History of US: Assessment Book: Books 1-10

You can also buy teacher's guides for each book in the series. Here's the first one. http://www.amazon.com/History-US-Americans-Prehistory-1600-Teaching/dp/0195153510/ref=pd_sim_b_3

 

 

Here's a web site that goes with the series also.

Yes, there are workbooks but they cost big bucks when you consider buying one for each book. Plus, they're not very work-booky. It looks like they're really intended to be a resource for classroom teachers. You can see samples here. http://joyhakim.com/forteachers.html#anchorlessonplanshistoryofus

Thank you- Thank you!

Thank you so much for posting this question! My DD uses these books, and we are using Sonlight's IG History, but only for the review and questions. I have not given one History test yet, and my daughter would actually like one.

I bought the syllabus Hewitt Homeschooling has put out. It gives a test for each book, lists for project ideas to do each week and a schedule to complete the series in 36 weeks.

The Blackline Masters are workbooky, but not bound. They're really nice.

It's hard to believe how much stuff is actually out there! Here are some guides specifically for elementary.

Hmm here is another one for book 1. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0195153510/ref=ord_cart_shr?%5Fencoding=UTF8&m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&v=glance I wonder what the difference is from the one AVAcademy posted?

 

SO it seems the one I link to is for middle school to highschool. THe one AAAcademy linked to is for elementary aged kids and uses the 3rd edition. WHEW! You saved me buying the wrong book!
