HOW WE USE HISTORY QUEST | Secular History | Middle Times | Pandia Press History Quest | Elementary

[@HistoryfortheAges]

I have heard good things about History Quest, and yes my channel is always available as a free resource to homeschoolers! For those who do not know, I am a History professor and put all my lectures on KZbin as a free resource.

I totally agree about not memorizing all the names and dates! My son is minoring in history in college and STILL doesn't have to memorize all that stuff. Knowing how to research properly and analyze/synthesize information is way more important... and developing a love of history is even MORE important!

[@MakingEverydayMagic]

Absolutely!! I am constantly reminded of how much I don't know, fortunately I have a pocket sized device that can save the day.

BTW, you've got a fan in this gal!

Hi! I know this is an older video, hopefully you can still help. Love all your thought process in this curriculum! Would I need to purchase the Study Guide, to get all the resources with this curriculum?

[@MakingEverydayMagic]

Yes. The book is just the history portion and the history hop narrative potions. The study guide will have the schedule, maps, coloring pages, recipes, recommended activities and further reading. You easily can, and we have used just the audiobook to listen and learn without any further activities. However, if you want to expand beyond just that, you'll need the study guide.

Don't forget to share any and all history resources you love!

[@MakingEverydayMagic]

Always have to shout out David at History For The Ages!

[@HistoryfortheAges]

@@MakingEverydayMagic Thank you! My channel is always there for homeschoolers as a free resource.

Your videos are always a wealth of information! We use History Quest and also go off script. Since we are a part of a charter, we also have to do Social Studies. So we are taking our time with the curriculum. It takes us two weeks to do each chapter and we love it! I gave my kid the option of dropping it and she was adamant about wanting her History! That's way more important than memorizing dates!

[@MakingEverydayMagic]

It really is. I have been shocked more than a few times to hear what my girls have retained from their lessons. I love being able to plant the seeds and watch the blooms.

Thank you for the review and showing us how you implement it! We just purchased it and I’m excited to delve in! Totally agree with learning alongside our kids..

[@MakingEverydayMagic]

We love HQ!

Does the Early Times typically finished within 1 year? And the same for Middle times? What do plan on doing after those two are completed?

[@MakingEverydayMagic]

I want to say it has 28 lessons, set up for 1 per week. I know middle times is 28 lessons. They are intended to be finished in a year.

[@MakingEverydayMagic]

I am hoping that the audio book of their US History is released before next year🤞

💯!!! I love how flexible this curriculum is. We are in Middle Times too. And I love learning about the European Middle Ages so much and had so many ideas I’m just doing them all at once instead of broken up in between other areas. If you haven’t seen it yet I highly recommend Great Medieval Projects You Can Build Yourself. Tons of great info to read and project ideas. We have really enjoyed that one. Absolute Histories and Tasting History with Max Miller on KZbin are also great resources.

My dad loves the Tasting History channel. These are all wonderful resources, thanks for sharing!!
