Amy in CO Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 Has anyone used this particular TTC video? It sounds really neat in the description, but I have never used anyone of their videos and was looking for someone who has actually seen it. Is it something that we can just integrate into our lessons whenever we come to the person or time frame we are discussing? Amy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
periwinkle Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 and the corresponding high school world history lectures (Linwood Thompson does both series). My boys liked them; however, they are not history lovers. Mr. Thompson dresses up in costume and his presentation can be corny/goofy at times. Mature, serious high school students may not appreciate his humor, but he gets a thumbs up here. Yes, you can dovetail these into almost any history study. They only go up until pre-Civil War years, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janice in NJ Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 In our house Linwood worked when my kids were younger. We are using other sets at the high school level. But maybe that's because TWTM model gives them so much history in K-8. By the time we reached high school, my kids were/are ready for the next thing. See if your library has them. Peace, Janice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharon in MD Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 But he really liked the History of the United States 2nd edition. I think that it was successful for us because the professors are so good that they draw you in. Go for the library for sure if you can.
