Product Description:

Living Books Curriculum Teaching Guide is used in conjunction with an assortment of other books - living books. Books such as historical fiction, non-fiction, biography, etc are used to give the student a great Charlotte Mason education. Some textbooks are used but not many.

A companion CD-ROM comes with each teaching guide as well. These CD’s usually have pictures for picture study, maps for geography, notebook/journal pages, helpful articles, science support pages, additional reading material, ebooks, and much more. Not every grade comes with all of these resources but each CD is relevant to the grade.

In American History for grade four the student will cover the Civil War era with emphasis on men and women of the north and south, both black and white. In World History the students will study the Middle Ages from the Dark Ages and High Middle Ages to the birth of the Nation State.  Geography will cover the map of Europe to go along with the World History study and a map of the United States to go along with American History.
