History is the story of people, not just dates and places. Pandia Press offers History Guides that can help homeschoolers learn about literature, world geography, and the history of Modern Times from 1850 to the 21st century. The guide is arranged by region, with easy-to-use lessons arranged chronologically and three Timeline Timeouts to help students synthesize chronological events. Students can use the lessons independently and check off reading assignments and timeline markers. Topics covered include the British Empire, Japan, nationalism, the birth of Italy, the unification of Germany, Manifest Destiny, Civil Rights, and more.
This Level 2 guide is designed for students in grades 7-9 who are in the classical logic stage of education. In level two, students learn information organization, literary analysis, research skills, and writing skills through reading some of the greatest historical literature for each time period. Level two also teaches advanced outlining and summarizing skills, how to write a biography, research skills, beginning literary analysis, critical thinking, and analytical skills. The end of the guide includes all the necessary historical blackline maps. A final timeline project, a timeline analysis, helps students analyze events occurring simultaneously.
The guide contains 99 lessons plus reproducible maps and comes as loose-leaf pages with a cover sheet. It is reproducible for home use only, and following a 1-2 hours/3 days a week schedule will cover one year of lessons.
