Timberdoodle has don’t it again! I am beyond impressed with their choices of homeschool curriculum. Famous Figures of Ancient Times goes along so well with The Story of the World. I read what I have to teach that week before hand and look through Famous Figures to see if it has a project for the person being introduced in our history class. There are even little cards that have information about each person. What I really like about Famous Figures is that there are two of each person. One for the teacher and one for the stupor color and put together. Since The Story of the World does not have a lot of pictures it is helpful to put a face to the name of the person they are learning about. I use Timberdoodle’s online scheduler but I took Famous Figures off of it so that I could do it along with our history book when the people where mentioned. The only downside to this book is that it doesn’t come with those little prong pieces to join the people together. We had some leftover from a previous art kit that I used but I am sure you can get them at any art supply store or Walmart. If you do not have prongs then you can always use tape. The prongs are hard for our daughter to put through the paper so I have to do that for her after she colors the people. This amazing history book is not a must have but it is a wonderful addition for any social studies class and I highly recommend getting it.
