TruthQuest History

TruthQuest History: "What is TruthQuest History?TruthQuest History is a deep and rich literature-based history study…but with a difference. You will not learn the story of mankind; you will learn the lovestory of mankind. You will not focus on the rise and fall of human civilizations; you will focus on the arrow-straight line of God's unchanging existence, power, love, truth, and plan for civilization. You will not simply 'meet the culture' or 'get the facts;' you will probe the truths of history so deeply that your students will be equipped to change their world!"


............... an interesting sounding curriculum that I stumbled on today - the Freebie of the Day for Homeschoolers pointed to this site.

Thought I would share ...

We are doing something similar with a book called "All Through the Ages". We've loved using this for the last 2 years and the freedom it has given us to spend extra time reading books based on history rather than just random fluff. Both girls have come to anticipate the arrival of the ILL's (InterLibrary Loans) and excitedly read even the harder books or the more "textbook" style. I allow them to choose what they want to pursue outside of the assignments - and Kendra especially enjoys devoring these extra tidbits. She became quite the authority on Ancient Egypt, and has already commented on many things that she has seen that the Greeks have either borrowed from the Egyptians or they shared as common decendents of the Tower of Babel.
