Discovering the Ancient World
High SchoolBeginning of recorded history — 500 B.C.
Discovering the Ancient World begins with the beginning of recorded history and covers civilizations up to 500 B.C., both Eastern and Western. For each civilization students study and map the region, study the literature of the people, the science discoveries of that civilization, and delve into the art, music and architecture unique to each people group.
Comparison questions, intensive writing assignments (with an option of including the Institute for Excellence in Writing), and research skills develop critical thinking in the students. This is a multi-cultural approach to literature and composition using the actual writings from the civilizations. All literature necessary for the course is included in the User's Manual.
Your scholar will create a coursebook, make a timeline, and mark the expansion of civilization on an unmarked world map.
Answer keys are provided for all research questionnaires, worksheets, quizzes, vocabulary, and unit tests.
