Around the Ancient World – Pre-order Ended

Around the Ancient World – Pre-order Ended

Are you interested in going around the ancient world with your homeschool lessons this year? This is a literature-based family-style curriculum for elementary students! Built to include a wide feast of ancient history from around the globe! Each week covers connected topics to explore ideas in the same categories but without the 5-day format. This allows you to have a day for co-op, two days for blended model, or a day to catch up.

Included is:

  • Teacher’s book with all the lesson plans
  • Printable map outlines
  • 21 titled printable art pages

ATTENTION: This is a digital download. It is currently at a lower price because I’m working through it with my own kids this year. The price will increase next year! The purchase comes with an invitation to join the “Development Facebook Group”. 

TO PRINT: I’ve found UPS is the cheapest. If you email them these directions they will prepare it perfectly!
  • Front and back – color printed and laminated (heavier lamination is better).
  • Inside pages – Front and back black and white printing on #28 paper, cut in half
  • Spiral bind

A Guide to Toddler And Preschool Learning

A Guide to Toddler And Preschool Learning

This is a guide to toddler and preschool learning. I don’t think kids need formal instruction until they are 5 or 6, but some kids have such a strong desire to learn, and some mothers want a guide into good books and activites. I hope this meets both of those needs.

Some of this guide is featured in Around the Ancient World as the “Toddler Time” recommendations. I did not plan to make it a guide of its own but ended up creating it because I had so many mothers message and ask if I would just send them the toddler activities. Even then, I didn’t want it to just be thrown together, so I ended up adding its own features and teaching sections specific for early learners and their parents.
