Looking for a strong, colorful, vibrant, Christ enriched history curriculum? We struggled to find a history curriculum that kept our interest. We tired from Story of The World each school year, and we were ready for something more. It is tough to find a World History curriculum for younger grades. But alas, after much hunting, I have found one! The World’s History series! They tie into Classical Conversations all 3 cycles well. It is recommended for grades 6-8th, but I have easily adapted it for younger kids and can teach it to multiple grades at a time. We have started volume 1 Ancient History, and it pairs well with ABC Sunday School Bible curriculum by Answers in Genesis. The pages are colorful with Bible verses to look up and many interesting facts. The teacher’s guide comes with worksheets, tests and craft recommendations and ideas. There is timeline and map work included for each chapter too. Older students are also challenged by the Digging Deeper section, and asked to choose from oral reports to many other ideas to deepen understanding. I will share a full review in the link below.

For a look into my absolute favorite Bible curriculum (Jesus Story Book aside), check out a Sunday School based curriculum written by Answers in Genesis. It is awesome and adapts well for homeschooling. We love it! It takes 4 years to complete if you do 52 lessons a year. It’s for all ages too! Each unit study is broken down into 10 lessons, the last being a review. There are 200 lessons in all, so that’s 20 units total. Answers has completed writing 10 units, and are currently working on the last 10. Every teacher’s unit comes with lesson posters, online access to songs and videos, and lesson instructions for the particular grade chosen… But that’s not all… it comes with online access to worksheets and printouts for ALL ages (adults too). All ages cover the exact same material in each unit, which makes it great for homeschooling. It’s a wonderful apologetics course that the entire family will learn from!
