Description: I have taught this text before and am excited to add to what I have taught before. This is a wonderful curriculum that brings ancient history alive. The author follows
the Biblical timeline which creates more ease in retaining the information. We begin with creation and will end the year with Jesus' death and resurrection. The text is written from a Biblical Worldview.
We will use reports, pictures, videos, role play, actions, games, timelines, and more in
making the history we learn our own. Each week we will read three lessons at home and
complete take home questions. There will be quizzes and an assessment at the end of each
semester. There will be points given for each assignment and suggested grades given at the end of each quarter.

Tutor: Mrs. Wicklander
Description: “This study of our Christian heritage is focused on the historical events and people surrounding the Declaration of Independence. The early Founding Fathers of the United States of America were men of principle who debated important points of government, liberty, and the God-given rights of mankind. Their work and sacrifice created an enduring legacy that led to some of the most influential documents in history, like the Constitution of the United States of America. In this American history homeschool curriculum, your junior high students will have an opportunity to learn how the American colonists chose to respond to the increasing tyranny of the British Empire and why the course of revolution was one they took after all other efforts at relief had failed.
Designed for grades 7-9, lessons contain a mix of source documents, related scriptures, short biographies, quotes, and real-world connections.” — Masterbooks
Note: This is a GREAT class to prepare students for The US Constitution, taken as a high school student.
