Tatt2mama Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 Is is possible to use only the secular parts of it (no missionary stories or Bible) and still have a full social studies experience? Is it worth using if you're dropping out all the religious material? Is there anything out there, similar to GTG that IS secular? Just curious, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoVanGogh Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 I used GtG in a completely secular manner. We loved it! I don't think that we missed anything due to skipping their Bible suggestions or missionary stories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cynful Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 We used it entirely secularly. I found it no problem at all. The one book I highly recommend to go along with it is Children Just Like Me which is also completely secular and even touches slightly on each of the children's religions in all the different countries.

Doodle Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 I felt that removing the religious content and trying to use the book secular, left little content. I returned the book. I felt that with the amount of material I would have been gathering via the internet/library to supplement the book, it was just as easy to plan my own units.
