Index:
PreK
through 6th:
One
of my favorite history resources to use with PreK-2nd
graders is
History For Little Pilgrims by Christian
Liberty Press. This reader covers world and American history
from Creation through 20th century. It is illustrated with
adorable cartoons and beautiful photographs. Simple projects
and a unit review are included in each chapter. ISBN 1930092849.
For
teaching multiple children in K
to 5th or 6th grade (up to 8th grade depending on the
student),
I recommend using multi-level units instead of textbooks.
(See Multi-level Teaching and
Sample Curriculum Plan for more
information.)The
Story of the World series (along with the
workbooks that go with it) by Susan Bauer combined with Diana
Waring tapes will give you everything you need to
teach a hands-on, multi-level history that will appeal to
all learners including your Kinesthetic
and Auditory learners. Here are some sample
titles:
If
you would like to do multi-level teaching using a textbook,
use the same textbook for all your children. I recommend
that you go through Exploring
World History and Exploring American
History by Ray Notgrass or the Bob Jones series (listed
below) using your oldest child's grade level. Read the
textbook orally to your children, have them orally answer
questions, assign grade-level, personal reading using library
books related to the topic, and assign writing
projects according
to ability.
For your Visual
Learner, try History
Scribe.
For your Kinesthetic
learner, I recommend that you also
incorporate hands-on activities using activity books
listed in History
Curriculum Recommendations. (NOTE: If you use this
plan, you will only need to purchase the teacher's edition
of the textbook, not the whole set. You can select that
choice from the links below.)
