Coco_Clark Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 I'd like my upcoming 5th graders to start their own Book of Centuries. And because of finances (and perfectionism that may require reprints) I'm going to make them myself. Problem is, I am having a hard time knowing what year to begin with! In the dozens of examples I've seen of BOC's, none really mentioned where they started. I could potentially print off pages going back thousands of thousands of years, but would we have anything to write down? So what date does your B.O.C. begin with? Or if you've never done a Book of Centuries but still want to play, what date kicks off knowable, record-able, (human) history? We will be using Story of the World as our main history spine, if that helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2ndGenHomeschooler Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 I printed off the free one on simplycharlottemason.com. We haven’t put tons in them yet but I’m sure they’ll fill up through high school. This reminds me that I need to print out another one for my upcoming 5th grader.

Coco_Clark Posted July 28, 2018 Author Share Posted July 28, 2018 Can I ask what year the simple charlotte mason one began with? Or maybe more importantly, what page you actually started writing in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LauraBeth475 Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 The one from Cottage Press has a page for 5000-2500 BC and then starts typical pages at 2500 bc. The ones I printed off Guest Hollow for the little ones starts at 4000 BC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
