If you want a curriculum that keeps your students engaged, keep reading! What is history, really? At first glance, you might think this is a silly question. History is the study of the past: who did what, when, and where it happened. That's all true! But history is also so much more. History is a story, like a pick-your-own-adventure story. It's a lens you look through to understand where you are now, how you got here, and where you might be going in the future. As Pearl S.

If you want a curriculum that keeps your students engaged, keep reading! What is history, really? At first glance, you might think this is a silly question. History is the study of the past: who did what, when, and where it happened. That's all true! But history is also so much more. History is a story, like a pick-your-own-adventure story. It's a lens you look through to understand where you are now, how you got here, and where you might be going in the future. As Pearl S. Buck once said, "If you want to understand today, you have to search yesterday." The scope of this book focuses on Mesopotamia and the Mediterranean regions due to the volume of information covered. However, we explore other ancient civilizations around the world in other books. This book is not just for homeschoolers. We hope it will be used by any parent wanting to give their child knowledge of and an appreciation for ancient history and provide perspective on why studying history is essential. Use it in your curriculum or as a supplement. Hand it to your kid for rainy-day reading. Share it as a family read-aloud. History has gotten a bad rap for being dry and dull. We think it deserves to be read as the fascinating, important, sometimes even hilarious subject it is! You will learn about what makes a group of people a civilization, how they rise, and what causes them to collapse. Then as we look at individual societies, we'll explore things like:how they came to exist what makes them unique how they fit into their world what contributions they left for future civilizations, and what happened to them in the end We'll meet some of the key players in the world at that time while learning funny, fascinating, and surprising facts. Did you know Egyptians had pets? They even mummified them so their pets could join them in the afterlife. Who would have thought pirates captured Julius Caesar? Alexander the Great was just 11 or 12 years old when he tamed an out-of-control horse using simple observation and problem-solving skills. The Romans loved games, including one similar to jacks called knucklebones, made with - you guessed it - the bones of animals. Are these exciting people or what? Within this full-year course, our reading book, workbook, and journal follow the same topics and are intended to complement each other. We provide instructions in the book on how to access the following free resources:Parent-Teacher Guide (includes answers to workbook questions) Bibliography with additional references Color images with citations Glossary Timeline (fill-in) This book contains black and white line drawings of the color images provided as a free download. Many images are either photographs of actual artifacts or drawings or paintings of actual artifacts. As a result, some of these images are anatomically correct. Please consider this when choosing to purchase this product. The target age of this book is 10 and up. However, it is meant to be read and enjoyed as a family. Some of the reading material may be challenging for students. It is recommended, as with all of our educational resources, that parents be on-hand to provide support and assistance whenever necessary. Our extensive additional resources, such as the glossary, index, and audiobook version of the text are also there to help.
