Weekly Overview Pages
Weekly, these two charts show the student all of his options (except reading and writing assignments) at a glance. They are written to the students to encourage independent planning, but you are the teacher and will be able to guide the student’s choices each week.
Student Threads are the weekly Threads rephrased for the benefit of your student.
People introduces students to important historical figures they may encounter in the week’s reading.
Younger students are given a set of
words that may appear in the week’s reading, and which may be used for vocabulary memorization, spelling words, or just as an easy way for you to familiarize them with words of the period.
Older students are encouraged to add this short, weekly list of dates to a cumulative
time line project. This four-year activity can be started with any year-plan. This work will aid students in making connections between simultaneous events occurring across oceans.
This first
Activities row is designed to give students ideas for individual projects. Details are provided in related resources or the Student Activity Pages.
The
Group Activities row gives co-ops or families the opportunity to engage in team building or group interaction while enhancing learning.
The
Geography row summarizes the student assignments that are expanded in the Student Activity Pages. Families will need age-appropriate atlases in order to complete the geography assignments.
