Grade Seven Teaching Guide & CD-Download
Publisher: Living Books Curriculum; Digital; 190 pp.
Grade Seven begins a two-year cycle of studies to be completed in Grade
Eight. World history covers ancient civilizations to the modern age and
American history covers early explorations to the present. Primary
documents and original source material are used as much as possible.
The goal of both history studies is to solidify understanding and give
a sense of the great flow of events. Grade Seven also continues the
exploration of great literature with, Shakespeare, Best-loved Literary
Fairy Tales, Jabberwocky: Poetry Studies for Junior High, Picture Study
and Composer Study. For science, the text Exploring Creation with
General Science is used. We also include an optional review of basic
grammar, for those who are first-time users of our curriculum. Grade
Seven Resource CD comes with each Teaching Guide. It includes a year of
picture study, nature journal, planner, maps and many other curriculum
helps.
