Beginning with the study of Early Medieval Europe (Byzantine Empire through Vikings), this engaging history course looks at the Islamic Caliphates (the Beginning and Golden Age of Islam, Warring Muslim Empires, and the Ottoman Empire), Asian Empires (Dynasties of China, Japanese Shoguns, Mongol Empire, and SE Asia), Pacific Peoples (Aboriginal Australians, Melanesia and Micronesia, Polynesia), Europe in the High Middle Ages (Feudal System, Crusades, Eastern and Western Europe), Medieval Britian (Anglo Saxons, Normans, Hundred Year’s War, War of the Roses), North American Peoples (Olmec, Maya & Aztec, Mound Builders, Native American Tribes), African Kingdoms (Mali Empire, Benin and Kongo, Ethiopia, Swahili Coast), and the Renaissance (Italian, Northern and English). The Usborne Encyclopedia of World History and Kingfisher History Encyclopedia are referenced in every unit and may be beneficial to have in your personal library. In addition, a great number of additional books are suggested to enhance the lessons. Students will also need access to a notebook and paper (or the Book of Years # 029653), the internet, art and craft supplies and other household items. As a family focused, multilevel curriculum, there are a lot of options and flexibility built into each unit.
