What are some co-op friendly History curriculums?

[Kimber]

Most of the choices we're looking at require the purchase of the Teacher's manual making the curriculum costs for one class upwards of $200 dollars for elementary. Ouch! That's just one class.

I think SOTW is reasonable in prices, but they were hoping to offer a Geography course alongside the history course for those families that opted not to do the history class. So we might consider SOTW, but we have to look at package deals.

Thanks I really appreciate the information,

:confused: :)

A co-op I know of uses Mystery of History. Itis reasonably priced.

I think the mapwork in SOTW AG would be perfect for a geography course!! Let the kids make an "Ancient History Atlas" with vocabulary and a "make believe" map in the back. Older kids can add comparing ancient maps w/ current maps. PHP offers a "consumable pages" packet or you can find similar maps online.

here's PHP's link: http://peacehillpress.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWCATS&Category=6

good luck!
