Description
Publisher's Description of Book of Years - Timeline of World History for Layers of Learning
The Book of Years is a timeline that you complete yourself. The top portion of each page is the actual timeline where you will paste timeline tags to show the big events through history.
The lower section is where you will draw and write about civilizations or time periods in history.
Ancient Egypt’s civilization lasted thousands of years. So you can draw and write about Ancient Egypt and turn the timeline section at the top of the page to see all of the events related to ancient Egypt while staying on the pages you completed about Ancient Egypt’s civilization. Since all civilizations share the upper timeline portion, you can see not only what was happening in ancient Egypt, but also what was going on in China and the Americas at the same time.
Category Description for Layers of Learning History
Take an adventure together through history and geography with this interactive family approach to learning. Courses are divided into 9 units, with each unit taking about one month. This is flexible, as each unit offers teaching notes, library lists, activities, enrichment ideas, and carefully selected rabbit trails to go deeper into a topic. Families with learners of different ages will appreciate that within each unit, the activities and recommended reading are further divided into three grade levels: 1-4, 5-8, and 9-12, along with lesson activities and readings as a family.
Layers of Learning offers separate history and geography courses that can be used separately or in tandem. If new to cyclical history study, it is recommended that you begin with Ancient History (Year 1), although families who have completed an ancient history course could begin with Middle Ages (Year 2) or Colonial History (Year 3).
Geography begins with an overview in Year 1, People and Planet. Year 2 expands on this knowledge with Mapping Our World, and World Cultures are studied in Year 3.
Also available are corresponding, optional Student Journals that are used throughout the four years to personalize the learning experience: the Book of Years blank timeline and World Explorer’s Journal.
