Does your homeschool student need one more comprehensive review of U.S. History? Would you like to make his final weeks of middle school history fun and memorable? Alpha Omega Publications has just the thing for you—the LIFEPAC U.S. History Unit 10 Worktext! This final unit in a series of ten eighth grade history and geography worktexts uses focused, consumable lessons to review the history lessons learned in Units 1-9. By the end of the Alpha Omega curriculum, your student will solidify his understanding of Europe and America's fight for independence, the colonies, the Civil War, the two World Wars, and the Cold War.
The LIFEPAC homeschool curriculum promotes independent learning by presenting material in an entertaining, easy-to-follow manner. Your student will build his confidence as he completes the worktext in just three to four weeks, an iota of the time it takes to get through a massive textbook!

Category Description for Lifepac History & Geography
Complete, easy-to-use curriculum with minimal teacher planning. LIFEPACs are like small worktexts. With ten per grade level, courses seem less intimidating to children. Moreover, many parents have commented that their children respond better to this mastery-learning approach than more free-form coursework, with better retention and understanding. For those yearning for more hands-on activities, use it as a framework to hang those fun, but supplemental, learning experiences on. Depending on your child's learning style and your lifestyle, LIFEPACs may fill the bill for one or several courses per year. It's easy to implement, easy to administer, easy to grade, and largely self-instructional. Grading is simple and consistent and from a Christian perspective. Complete boxed sets include Teacher's Guides with answer keys. For additional students, choose the LIFEPAC only sets.
