The Story of the World Curriculum

The Story of the World Curriculum comes in four volumes covering the history of the world and is a wonderful homeschool history resource.

There is a narrative text (great to read aloud or listen to in the audiobook format) and also a huge Activity Book for each volume filled with questions, narration ideas, project ideas and suggested books to enhance your study of history.

We have enjoyed using this as a spine for our younger children when studying world history.

The Four volumes of Story of the World

The four Story of the World Curriculum volumes give you a wonderful history spine to captivate your young listeners as they travel the world from the Ancient Times until the Modern Times, learning to view history in the big picture.

4 volumes, including:

Volume One: Ancient Times (5000 BC to 400 AD)
Volume Two: The Middle Ages (400 - 1600)
Volume Three: Early Modern Times (1600 to 1850)
Volume Four: The Modern Age (1850 to 1994)
