Are you looking for a homeschool curriculum that will teach your child all that happened in the first half of the 20th century? Do you want to make your child's history lessons insightful and fun? Alpha Omega Publications has just the thing for you—the LIFEPAC U.S. History Unit 8 Worktext! This print-based, colorful worktext uses student-paced lessons to teach history and geography. This eighth in a series of ten history and geography worktexts will teach your child about many important historical landmarks. By the end of this captivating and focused Alpha Omega curriculum, your student will know about World Wars I and II, the Great Depression, and the New Deal.
We've got plenty to tell! The LIFEPAC homeschool curriculum uses mastery learning techniques, so your student will solidify what he knows with fun exercises and activities before he moves on to new material. Your student will build his confidence and self-discipline as he works independently on the easy-to-follow lessons. Unlike a regular textbook, which can take months to even get halfway through, the compact worktext can be completed in just three to four weeks. The worktext includes reviews, several self tests, and one removable teacher-administered test.

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.
