Provide your student with a thorough understanding of the foundations of American independence and government!
America's Struggle to Become a Nation by Rick and Marilyn Boyer will bring students right into the heart of why history matters. Helping students to understand the beginning of our nation so that they can fulfill their duty today, understand how our government is structured, and help preserve our freedom for future generations, this text features a full-year (34-week) study of the War of Independence and the creation of the United States of America. Chapters explore the lives of the founding men and women who stood up for their principles, and integrate a number of in-depth character comments, explanations of providential occurrences, poetry from the period, and full-color artwork.
The teacher's guide includes a weekly lesson schedule, student worksheets, quarterly quizzes, and an answer key. Pages are grouped by type, rather than by lesson, so parents can easily remove tests and answer keys. Covers one year of instruction for the student text.
Worksheets include short-answer questions and projects; tests include essay/short-answer questions. Lessons are aligned to the student textbook with chapter and page numbers on the top of the worksheets.
This course covers 1 year of history at the recommended schedule of 30-45 minutes per lesson, 5 days a week. Reproducible for homeschool families and small classrooms with under 10 students. Line-listed answer keys. KJV Scripture used. Grades 4-6.
