kknickrehm Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 I am considering this program - for 6th-7th graders. Would love to hear comments and how you use it. Time allotted, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
countrymum Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 It doesn't take long. Like 15 min a lesson?? I am really liking it for elementary. I think with the middle school ideas it would be great for that too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waa510 Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 It's a quick lesson..my kids would spend maybe 20 minutes max on it a day when they did it. It was fairly simple for them but they loved the Material World and Hungry Planet accompanying books. The information is a bit dated within the books but it gave a fairly accurate picture of lifestyles in different regions. The author suggests books for recommended reading and I tied those in when I could to add a bit more to the curriculum. My kids got a lot out of the drawing portion and were able to do it largely independently too. We went thru the series fairly quickly and they still pour through the books on their own.
