For history I doubt we would do it as often!!! My kids love timelines!!! I love what it covers!!! We also love having maps!!! We love how they keep things fresh!!!

[@PearlsAndOak]

I’ve not seen a flip-through of this one…and it looks amazing! I can’t wait to hear what y’all think about it!

[@D3thepeople]

This looks like it might go well along with our Classical Conversations Timeline and our Memoria Press Christian Studies I. Thanks for the flip thru! I really enjoyed it. ❤️

[@HomeSweetHomeschoolLife]

I am glad it was helpful.

[@shanalikebanana238]

We just completed this unit. It is our new favorite!

[@HomeSweetHomeschoolLife]

That’s great to hear. I don’t know if we will use it to finish up this year or if we will do it next school year. What was your favorite part?

[@lifewithginab]

Love your flip-throughs! This unit looks awesome!

[@HomeSweetHomeschoolLife]

Thank you so much!

[@HomegrownHomeschool]

This looks like such an awesome unit study! I feel like there’s not enough hours in the day to teach all I want to and your awesome unit study reviews are only giving me more I want to do 😂😂😂

[@HomeSweetHomeschoolLife]

I feel the same way. So many great things, so little time.

[@samibuck]

This looks amazing! I think we might be stepping away from GR for next year to try our a more traditional approach to science & history. My kids and I just can’t make GR work for us right now 🙁 I love love love it! Hopefully we can make it work once they actually listen to me read to them 😏 Lol.

[@HomeSweetHomeschoolLife]

I completely understand. I will be praying that you find something that works.

[@jennajadeg7010]

Ashlea, do you think this would be good for High School in GA? :) Thinking of doing some with our high schooler and elementary.

[@HomeSweetHomeschoolLife]

My plan for high school World History is to start with this unit. Then we will use Vikings and Medieval Times. I feel like she will probably add more World History units. I will also have him read books to go along with these units. I think these would work perfectly for GA.

[@jennajadeg7010]

@@HomeSweetHomeschoolLife amazing!! Ty for clarifying too and what you would add in.

[@MichelleL83]

@Home Sweet Homeschool, I love your history plan for high school. How do you think you'll track for science? Or will you supplement science?

[@fab5bailey369]

Hi! Thanks for the flip-through.

[@HomeSweetHomeschoolLife]

Thanks for watching.

[@Olgaleigh]

Yeah I’ve had to wait all day to watch this!!! So excited for this one. I want to do to so bad but we are already doing 2 lol

[@HomeSweetHomeschoolLife]

That’s my problem. I want to do all of them right now🤣

[@Vicki510]

Do you think you could use this unit as a once per week history lesson instead? Maybe just reading through the lessons in the teachers guide together

[@HomeSweetHomeschoolLife]

Absolutely! The notebooking page in the student notebook would be perfect for that.

[@cherietuck3528]

Looks amazing. I love gather round!

What has been your favorite unit?

[@cherietuck3528]

@@HomeSweetHomeschoolLife we’ve only form year 1 units so far … I must say North American Birds was our first and favorite unit .. 🤔

[@HomeSweetHomeschoolLife]

@@cherietuck3528 that is one of my favorites too.

[@Mz_a92]

We will be new to Gather Round would you suggest we start with this one or a different one? We are currently using TGTB, but it was too boring for my kiddos no matter how “fun” I’d try and make it they just aren’t feeling it.

[@HomeSweetHomeschoolLife]

You could start with any of them. They are all fun and engaging. How old are your kids? What are they interested in?

[@Mz_a92]

@@HomeSweetHomeschoolLife oh okay! We are excited! They are 11 & 9 years old! They really like a bit of everything to be honest. I usually like showing them the curriculum before actually making the choice of purchasing to see what their thoughts are and when I showed them the Ancient Civilization they were pretty excited about it!

[@HomeSweetHomeschoolLife]

We loved this unit. If they picked it out, I would definitely go with it first.

[@Mz_a92]

@@HomeSweetHomeschoolLife awesome! Okay. Thank you!!

[@nicolestanyer2975]

This will be a wonderful unit for World History.

[@HomeSweetHomeschoolLife]

We are excited for it.

[@michellechannell1219]

I have a High School question. If you only had High School age would you have them read the lessons on their own?

[@HomeSweetHomeschoolLife]

You certainly could. I believe there are a lot of families that do that.

[@PearlsAndOak]

Oh..this really makes me want to buy print!

[@HomeSweetHomeschoolLife]

The print is fabulous, but I dislike the top binding on the student notebook.

[@Gemini0110]

@@HomeSweetHomeschoolLife my son dislikes the top binding as well. He gets mixed up on which way he is supposed to flip pages.

[@HomeSweetHomeschoolLife]

@@Gemini0110 I am the same way. It confuses me for some reason.

[@cpcw06]

I was interested to see a flip-through of this curriculum and was thinking of trying it out. I noticed that she shows the world was created in 4000 B.C., yet gives no evidence or reasoning behind that date. Given that carved artifacts have been discovered that are over 35000 years old, I'd love to know her reasoning. If she ignores basic facts at the very beginning of this curriculum, I can't trust whatever twist she will put on any of the information afterwards. Looks like I will be sticking with the Good & Beautiful.

[@HomeSweetHomeschoolLife]

The Good and the Beautiful is a wonderful curriculum.
