Great Resource!!
This book series is the perfect balance between a scripted, rigid history program and a completely unstructured approach to teaching history. I use it in a homeschooling history coop group with 6 girls, age 5-8. We have a great time. I use the study questions, we fill out the map, and then we do a craft. We enjoyed forming the Nile river with dirt and rocks, building an "ancient home" ...

A great resource
First the positive Each book in this series is a complete introduction to history within a certain time frame, for example this one is about the Middle Ages. You will have to add your own history book to go along with this, this is just the lesson plan/idea book. (Usorne History of the World would be one example of the type of history book you might buy). This book has a lot of ideas and ...

NOT BORING AT ALL! WE LOVE IT!!
I don't know why the same reviewer listed 2 reviews saying this was a boring series, but they couldn't be more wrong. This is the perfect way to explore history, from beginning to end. The narration is fun and interesting. My 8-year-old and 5-year-old love to listen to the stories and enjoy the workbook as well. Even my 2-year-old will listen to it. It is perfect for the car or when you are ...

A Homeschool Must Read!
My first thought after finishing the book was that I wish I had read this when we first began homeschooling! This book is a wealth of information on classical education. It thoroughly describes how to implement it into your own home and gives plenty of curricula recommendations along with other helps. I would recommend this book as a must read!

Very good resource
Only one caution, there are some map inaccuracies in the workbook. Ninevah is on the wrong side of the Tigris river on two of the worksheets. Very nice foundation for young children; mine look forward to reading every day.

Wonderful Product
The history is in a story format that kids can relate to and understand. I homeschool 3 children and absolutely love this curriculum. The story pages to color help my youngest follow along as the older ones read. We have the activity book and there are supplementary books that we get from the library. The quizes also help alot!

Coherent and entertaining
This really is a world history of ancient cultures--it ranges from Mesopotamia all the way east to the Chinese coast and all the way west to the British Isles. Bauer uses original sources as well as plenty of myths and legends to illuminate the bare-bones facts of history, fulfilling her promise to give us a glimpse not only of what ancient peoples did, but what they thought and feared. As an ...

The Story just keeps getting better
My children (ages 6 and 14) studied through volumes 1 and 2 last year for our homeschool social studies curriculum. Volume 3 is everything we hoped for to extend our knowledge! The activity guides have proven to be a vital resource to cut some preparation time for lessons. In Volume 3 each chapter covers a slightly broader time frame, making it even more important to follow up the lesson with ...

Super History
This is my first year using the Story of the World curriculum, I home school my two children, ages 9 & 12. The CD's are great in the car, or while doing the coloring pages from the activity book, which I highly recommend to go with the CD's or the text book. The material is probably geared for grades 2-6. I have also seen and heard the author, Susan Wise Bauer, speak and admire her education ...

An incredibly, enjoyable, thought-provoking novel!!
Susan Wise Bauer's novel, The Revolt, is a strong, intriguing, enjoyable page-turner. If you enjoy suspense, mystery, political intrigue, and a little of the old-flame love story, this is for you. But be prepared to think! We live in an age in which religious views often go against government issues, and Bauer tells a compelling tale of what can happen when the two are forced together. An ...

Great SUPPLEMENT to the book
We really enjoy using the CDs with the books. Keep in mind, however, that the CDs don't include the illustrations that are in the books. These make a great supplement, but I wouldn't use them to REPLACE the books.

Another Gripping Page-Turner by Susan Wise Bauer!!
I must admit up front that I selected this book to read because I am using SWB's book The Well-Trained Mind as the guide for the classical education of my children. I would say that I am fairly well read and read approximately 1-2 books per week. I was intrigued by the title and thought, well, it would be interesting to see what kind of author this person was who I was using as the primary ...
