Publisher's Description of Streams of Civilization Volume One Third Edition

This expanded and updated full-color world history text provides a comprehensive overview of ancient history from Creation through the 1620s. Written from a Christian perspective, this hardcover edition contains vocabulary terms, comprehension questions, and suggested projects. The text contains many colorful images and maps, as well as additional side-bars.

Veritas Elementary History offers five dif­ferent time periods, with each aimed at a different grade level beginning in grade 2 and designed to take one school year. There are a few components to this series that are offered in a kit or sold separately. The Teacher Manual is split into 32 weekly lessons. Each lesson has a worksheet, a project or two, and a test. The color-coded History Cards are an essential ele­ment of the program and contain many inter­esting facts from the various time periods. If the cards also relate to Bible history, they have another color and another number. Songs on the Audio CD are nicely done and designed as a type of auditory timeline.
