The World's Story 2: The Middle Ages Student Book

Description

The Student Books are amazing. Full of colorful artwork and photos as well as black & white illustrations, vocabulary tidbits, maps, and biographical sketches, it is skillfully formatted into an appealing and engaging text. Each of the 28 chapters (i.e. weekly lessons) have text interspersed with Narration Breaks (place to stop and recount orally the information that has been covered) and "Analyze/Connect" (Worlds Story). Each chapter ends with a two-page photo montage (a feature I love) that pertains to the chapters focus. For instance, there are montages of an ancient city such as Jerusalem or Kerma in Sudan.
Publisher's Description of The World's Story 2: The Middle Ages Student Book

Students will cover the Middle Ages through the Renaissance, beginning with the fall of Rome and surveying history from around the world.

Angela O'Dell's World's Story series uses the same fun style of her popular America's Story series to teach junior-high students about world history. Students will learn about everything from the fall of Rome to the Renaissance in a survey that covers Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Americas. Written from a strong Christian perspective, students will see God's hand throughout history and learn about how this history is still relevant to their lives today.
