Book Reviews of The Story of the World: History for the Classical Child: Tests for Volume 1: Ancient Times (Story of the World: History for the Classical Child)
Book Review: useful tool for the series
Summary: 4 Stars
this is a useful tool for the series. it tests the same level of understanding of each chapter as the questions suggested in the activity book does. neither requires the child to recall every single detail. it does not seem to be necessary, as the activity book covers the same level of question plus provides many additional activities), but when you homeschool if you like to incorporate written tests, then this makes it easy.
on the other hand, if you are trying to encourage deeper understanding, i think the activity book goes farther, as the questions are open ended and the child has the opportunity to expand upon his answers, and the parent can expand his questioning appropriately to encourage recall. the tests do not do this.
Summary of The Story of the World: History for the Classical Child: Tests for Volume 1: Ancient Times (Story of the World: History for the Classical Child)
History has been taught in a boring way for far too long.A subject as moving and powerful as humanity's past should be inviting, and when it is told well, it is. Susan Wise Bauer succeeds in telling the captivating story of history with her best-selling history series. Parents and young readers have fallen in love with her narrative history, The Story of the World, and its accompanying Activity Book.
Now teachers and home educators can take advantage of a new and valuable learning tool.
These easy-to-use tests and answer keys, successfully used by hundreds of parents and teachers, provide an objective method for measuring retention of key facts, figures, and events from history. A combination of sequencing, matching, short-answer, and essay-style questions gives students a chance to show what they've learned.
Used with the Activity Book and The Story of the World, the tests give educators a complete history curriculum for their elementary school students.
