Curriculum

  Don’t just read about history — experience it! Color a picture of Viking warrior, make an edible oasis, create a Moorish ruler’s turban and Aztec jewelry and more. Designed to turn the accompanying book (The Story of the World, Vol. 2: The Middle Ages) into a complete history program, this Activity Book provides you with comprehension questions and answers, sample narrations, maps and geography activities, coloring pages, lists of additional readings in history and literature, and plenty of simple, hands-on activities — all designed for grades 1-4. If you purchase this Activity Book, you have permission to copy the maps and coloring pages for use within your own family. If you would like to save yourself the trouble, you can purchase the separate Student Pages 2. Any textbook can tell your child that “Many of Shakespeare’s plays include battles, duels, and murders.” But our activity books offer more practical tips, such as “Raise your sword over your head and chop downwards as though you were intending to cut your opponent in half down the middle.”
