Product Description:

Category Description for Draw and Write Through History:

These fun and educational supplements will be a great diversion from boring textbooks and endless amounts of reading! Students will love putting some of their other talents into their history lessons, whether drawing the Trojan Horse, the black stallion of Alexander the Great, or a Viking ship. Each book is divided into several sections that cover many aspects of early history with a good mix of Biblical accounts and other historical events. Each section begins with a drawing of the time period or place, followed by detailed drawing instructions for all different aspects of the picture, and concluding with a page of information about the time period for students to copy to practice their penmanship. For example, in the Creation Through Jonah book, the section on Egypt starts with a colored page featuring a pyramid, mummy, and sphinx. The following pages have separate step-by-step drawing instructions (1-3 pages per drawing) for each of those items. The information about Egypt closes the section, written in cursive so students have a model to copy their handwriting after. Sprinkled with interesting facts and Bible verses, these books are sure to bring the ancient times to life. Approximately 60 pgs. ~ Megan

We liked the first book in this series...and have been using it to guide us through a basic path through history to go along with a separate book list I have of recommended picture and chapter books I can purchase (or get at the library).

easy activity to incorporate for my curriculum this year

I am hoping to help my son who has struggled with writing to find joy and fun in this subject while practicing writing. He loves history, and though a late reader, I believe the writing will continue to come along with this kind of practice.

I enjoy consolidating subjects, and this provided activities for my kids in copywork, handwriting, history and art. It seemed like a good level of drawing for my younger students

Interested in trying it for my artistic children who need more guidance than I can give them.
Staci C on Mar 30, 2018
These are helpful for the kids to supplement our history lessons. I read their history to them while they draw from these books.
Stephanie V on Mar 1, 2018
To use with the Mystery of History Volume 1 curriculum. My son used the Creation to Rome book and he likes it.

Saw a friends copy and thought this would make a great guide to combine Bible, art & history for my hands on learners.
Sherri C on Jan 15, 2016
My children love to draw. Why not have them learn to draw scenes that we are reading about in history? Nice activity for them while listening to our history read-alouds.

Is this a consumable workbook, or do you need to buy a separate journal or composition book to go along with it? If you need a separate composition book, what's your best estimate for how many pages should be in it? Thanks so much for any insights. I really appreciate it!
A shopper on May 10, 2022
BEST ANSWER: These are non-consumables, one will need a separate journal to write and draw in. A typical 120 A4 size book should work depending on level of your child. I would think a sketch book as a base, draw directly into the blank sheets and paste whatever cursive writings side by side should work or vice versa, draw on separate drawing paper and write in lined pages of the book. However, it may also depend on how much one wants to add, like printing other relevant information and include them. The truth we hadn’t used it much but that’s the way I approach history subjects.
Does this only have cursive copywork?
A shopper on Oct 4, 2018
BEST ANSWER: Yes, this Greece and Rome Draw & Write only has cursive pages, but the art is amazing! We love it. An easy way to create your own handwriting practice sheets is through WorkSheetworks on the internet. You can type in any text to use as the practice source. Hope this helps!
