I share the resources that we will be using with the SOTW, including biographies, read alouds, themed picture books, cds, art, crafts and more. I hope you find this video helpful.

We're following TWTM and using SotW vol. 2 this year as well! I found Claritas Publishing which is similar to Classical Conversations, but they use a 4 year cycle and it lines up really nicely with SotW! I did a video showing the memory guide book for cycle 2 if you're curious to see what it looks like! Thanks for sharing all of your resources!

Thank you for taking the time to comment. You are very welcome! I love seeing what resources other people are using. I haven't heard of Claritas before, I will have to check out your video! :)

I would love to know if you have a book list for book 1 for the Story of the World. Thank you.

Just wondering if any homeschoolers cover American Artist/Painters in their history curriculum because I've watched tons of these videos and only see European Artist

[@glitterngloss13]

Great video!!! Is there a book list from story of the world or did you just find random books that went along with the time period? Those are great books!

Thanks!! The SOTW Activity Book has books that they recommend for each section. I don't have the activity book for this volume yet though. I didn't really use their suggestions last year too much either. I look at amazon, Rainbow Resources, and lots of other sites. I make a mental list of books I am wanting to add to our library and as I am going to our used book store, teacher yard sales, searching amazon, etc., I look for those books. I also keep an eye out for anything from that time frame. I have made my best finds by just seeing deals are out there. I use the whole year to gather resources for the next year. There are a few books that I really wanted and when I couldn't them used, I waited till their prices dropped on Amazon or bought them with my Rainbow Resources order (sometime they are the cheapest). I have a tight homeschool budget so I try to stretch every dollar. :)
