Product Description

The digital files include:

• Songs: It is a well-known fact that students rarely forget what they sing! TCH3A includes 4 catchy and entertaining songs that you and your students will enjoy singing in class and even as you go about the rest of your day. The unit songs summarize the key events and cultural pieces included in the chapters. The fourth tune, “Top 12 Things to Remember from TCH3A,” is a great way for students to impress their friends and family with the most interesting tidbits about the early Middle Ages! The lyrics are found in appendix A, and a PDF download of the song lyrics is included in the support resources for easy reference if your students want to sing in the car, on vacation, or at a friend’s house. A song icon in the text will prompt you to introduce each chapter’s verses to students at the beginning of each lesson. Sample songs coming soon!
• TCH3A Profiles and Legends (PDF): This collection of optional readings is intended to complement the TCH3A chapters by introducing students to some of the more famous tales of medieval history—such as the story of Odo of Bayeux—that we did not have room for in our text. The Profile pieces shed further light on interesting historical achievements by important figures, such as Amalasuintha, Alcuin, and Æthelflæd, whom we could only spend a limited amount of space discussing in the context of each chapter.
• Biblical Connections in TCH3A (PDF): For teachers and parents who would like to integrate religious history/biblical studies with their study of ancient history, we have created a supplemental PDF that draws connections to biblical history and locations, scripture verses, and so forth. Icons in the teacher’s edition indicate when to reference this optional PDF resource.
• The Curious Historian’s Reading Guide for TCH3A (PDF): For those who would like to continue their exploration of medieval history beyond the pages of our text, we have supplied a recommended reading list, featuring titles for both students and teachers.
