Category Description for America's History (Tuttle Twins)
Kids CAN love history! No dry textbooks here… With help from the Tuttle twins, these stories from America’s past will captivate your children! Text is conversational and filled with colorful illustrations. Kids learn important lessons that are relevant to their lives TODAY, laying a foundation to guide them into the future. This is not a traditional curriculum with a daily schedule/lesson structure. So, families move through chapters at their own pace. Throughout the book are “More About This!” sections, helping students to dig deeper. A “Let’s Talk About It!” section at the end of each chapter encourages students to reflect on what they’ve learned and prompts them with questions to ponder, perfect for discussion as a family (sometimes an activity is suggested). America’s History is divided into two books, Volume 1 covering 1215-1776 and Volume 2 from1776-1791.
