Description
Our family-friendly, flexible curriculum provides weekly basic lesson plans in which beautiful, living books are scheduled into weekly page assignments (see book samples here).
Plans are organized into four rotating cycles covering the full range of world history.
- Cycle 1: 1600–1700 | Ancient Mesopotamia & Egypt
- Cycle 2: 1700–1800 | Ancient Greece & Rome
- Cycle 3: 1800–1900 | Middle Ages
- Cycle 4: 1900–Present | Renaissance & Reformation
Grades 1–12 are all in the same cycle at the same time, however, please note that grades 1–4 (group 1 students) study only one stream of history, the history of their own country (the American history stream in the plans), before moving outward and adding the ancient and British history streams in older grades.
Cycles are divided into age-appropriate groupings:
- Kindergarten
- Group I: Grades 1–4
- Group II: Grades 5–8
- Group III: Grades 9–12
Non-shared work increases in amount and difficulty with each grade.
