Publisher Description:
Is your student ready to learn what the Cold War was all about? Or how America ended up in Vietnam? Then your student is ready for the LIFEPAC U.S. History Unit 9 Worktext from Alpha Omega Publications! This captivating, Christian homeschool curriculum uses easy-to-follow lessons to teach your middle school student how the Cold War got to America, and how America got to Vietnam. By the end of this ninth in a series of ten eighth grade history and geography worktexts, your student will understand the series of events surrounding the Cold War, Vietnam, the Truman and Nixon presidencies, and how the Cold War came to an end.
Your student will never be overwhelmed by too much information because he will learn using mastery learning techniques. Your student will understand and solidify what he knows using illustrations, activities, and exercises before moving on to the next lesson. It's hard to feel like you're accomplishing anything using a regular textbook because they're so large. But with LIFEPAC, your student will feel a huge sense of accomplishment when he completes the colorful, compact worktext in just three to four weeks! This Alpha Omega curriculum also includes reviews, 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.
