wow, I found this book at the library but I had no idea there was a whole curriculum, workbook, etc. Thank you for sharing this review.

Very helpful as I just got this in the mail. Thanks.

Wonderful review!! Thank you!! I'm getting ready to purchase this for our upcoming school year as well!!

Excellent review! Thank you so much.

Thank you for this. Just what I needed to get started in the Story of the World curriculum.

Thank you! I’m trying to decide between this & mystery of history

To beef it up for a 9th grader, you could add in a couple of Plutarch's Lives (Anne White has guides on them. She abridged them slightly while keeping the original language, added vocabulary lists and background information, and provides narration prompts that you could use for essay ideas), Shakespeare's Julius Caesar (Arkangel has really good dramatized audio versions--follow along in the book while listening), and GA Henry books. He has quite a few set in ancient times. Or Roger Lancelyn Greene's "Tales of Ancient Egypt". You'd also want to add in writing and/or research prompts, timeline, and mapwork. For the timeline, you could do a Charlotte Mason-style "book of centuries" (lots of videos on that on KZfaq!). Hope this helps...

Brilliant review. Thank you so much. Informative and helpful

Thank you for this review - I'm about to purchase this for my 7 yr old (2nd Grade), but I wanted to see it first. This was very helpful! Question...are the extra "suggested" books children's books? It would be great if they're easy for a 7 yr old to understand. I think I will take your advice and take it slow, and get some of the suggested books out of the library if they're for kids, not textbooks or complicated books. Thanks.

HI, in your honest opinon would this be too easy for a 9th grader? I am homeschooling for the first time and my daughter doesn't really care for "textbook" history, i'm trying to do something different but that will challenge her just a bit. I like the binder book thingy, it seems very helpful. I'm thinking and hoping that I can make it work. Also, is this very heavy on the Bibilical aspect or is it a nice balance between biblical and secular. Thank you so much!!!

Thank you for the review. I am excited to start this next year. Where did you get the wall map behind you?

Hi! Enjoyed this review alot & it helped with my question I had! I wanted to ask where did you get the test questions at?!

Hi, thank you for your review! I am torn between this curriculum and Book Shark. You quickly mentioned in your video you were also thinking of Book Shark. Did you ever move on to Book Shark? Looking for some insight on your preference if you did.

thanks for the review, i wanted to see what the workbook looked like.

How did you take the pages apart from the binding?

thank you for your video, it has help me to get ready.. where can i get the game?

Fantastic review!!!

I know this is an old video, but I'm wondering... Is it easy to photocopy without ruining the binding in the activity book? Thank you :)

I have this book but not activity book. Im thinging of using this for my 5th grader this year.

Does it have a list of book to read along with the time period?

Thank you for this review. Very helpful. Is this something you are still using now and has grown with your family? Or is there something else you recommend better at this point?

May I ask please how you took the activity book apart?

Would this be OK for 3rd grade?

is this good for people with learning disabilities?

This may sound bad, but how biblical is this text?

Is this good for canadians? Is it reallly american history heavy??

Isn't it boring for kids? Lacking pictures and too much text
