Category Description for Calvert History & Geography
Calvert History & Geography is a well-organized curriculum that ensures students master concepts before moving on. The cognitive reasoning questions in this series build analytical skills, moving beyond rote memorization. Starting with teacher-student interaction in 1st grade (until students are reading on their own), courses then progress toward student independence with all instruction written directly into the consumable, student worktexts. Teacher checkpoints throughout the curriculum ensure quality of work and understanding of concepts. Tests are packaged at the back of each worktext and should be removed before giving them to students.
Complete Sets include all student and teacher material in one convenient box. Students gain confidence as they work through the 10 full-color Student Worktexts, taking 3-4 weeks each to complete. Worktexts provide both textual material and written response space. Teacher Guides contain the scope & sequence, teaching tips, reproducible planning and grading sheets, optional learning activities, and answer keys. See our website for topics covered in each grade.
