Guides to History Plus

Social studies objectives—American and world history, geography, government, and economics—are incorporated into an easy-to-use question guide for the study of any period or culture in grades K-12. This section can also be easily used as a working outline for independent study. Activity ideas follow, incorporating objectives in other subjects for those interested in using a unit study approach to history. Also included: teaching tips, instructions for making timelines, lists of map skills, reproducible blank maps, definitions of geographic terms, questions to provide practice in analysis for high school students; lists of literature, games, and movies on video arranged by period with topics for study, and a checklist of objectives for reference in making high school transcripts.
