History and Geography

History is approached differently by different curriculums. Some day I will include some information about that, but for now, I will say this: If your children have to be tested and history is included on the tests, you might need to choose the same path as your local school system, otherwise you will be free to choose how to go about teaching history to your children.

There is not really much here in the history section at this time. I have some reading schedules, printable forms, pictures of presidents, maps, and some book suggestions.

Book Lists

Even though the pages below are described as a schedule for A Child's History of the World, you can still look over the suggested books even if you are not using A Child's History of the World
