baxterclan7 21 Posted February 13, 2020 Report Share Posted February 13, 2020 (edited) Are there plans to redo volume 4? I have the hard copy, but curious before I order the student pages and coloring pages digitally. Edited February 13, 2020 by baxterclan7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
100,010 Posted February 13, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2020 We are working on a revision of Volume 4, but it wouldn't be out for at least another year (Feb/March 2021). Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The ones in volumes 1 and 2 are much “cleaner”. Was there a reason for not doing this? Hi Paradox5, Thanks for asking. When we were deciding what to revise/update, we had to choose where to put our limited resources/money, and we ended up focusing on the booklists, coloring pages, craft templates, board games, paper dolls, review cards, etc, as we felt that the existing ones just weren't up to our 2020 standard. So we put our efforts there. The maps were, we felt, good enough. But you're right that the Volume 1 & 2 maps are superior. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

goldenecho 672 Posted August 25, 2020 Report Share Posted August 25, 2020 Excited about this! Any chance in the future of a revision of Volume I that would deal with some of these historical errors? http://imaginativehomeschool.blogspot.com/2016/09/story-of-world-error-list.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Stay tuned for updates. And yes, we'll be going through it with a fine-toothed comb to correct anything that needs correcting. Thanks! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
