    History wasn’t my favorite when I was in school. Now I’m fascinated by it!!!

      History is awesome. We have so much fun with the possibilities of what we can do while studying it. Thank you for watching. Have a great day!

    My daughter used America's Story last year :) She did not like the worksheets very much either. Loved your review!

    • @HomeschoolwithJen
      @HomeschoolwithJen  3 года назад

      Thank you! Yes, the worksheets were definitely not our favorite. Thank you for the encouragement. I really appreciate it. Have a great day!

    I really like your idea of changing it a bit and creating a timeline all the way across one long wall, that would be fun!

    • @HomeschoolwithJen
      @HomeschoolwithJen  3 года назад

      Definitely! I wish that I had the wall space for it.

    It is so nice that as homeschoolers we have so many options allowing us to find the right fit for our kids. I think we need to do more timelines. I love pocket books

    • @HomeschoolwithJen
      @HomeschoolwithJen  3 года назад

      Thank you for watching. Yes, the Evan Moor History Pockets are wonderful. I would do one all the time if it was feasible. We learn so much and they reinforce the material in a hands-on way. Have a great day!

      Thank you so much for letting me know! We just finished AS 2 and I'm working on the same type of video for AS 2. Thanks, again!

    I think a timeline book would be a good idea. If you kept it in a binder, you could add a page wherever it needs to go.

    Loved the presentations!! LOL, of course she won.❤️I love teaching and learning history.

    • @HomeschoolwithJen
      @HomeschoolwithJen  3 года назад

      Us too! History and science are our 2 favorite. Yes, of course she won. She's just a little competitive :).

    Masterbook did not work for us, but we did not try American Story though. The timeline sounds very helpful. I always enjoyed though.

    • @HomeschoolwithJen
      @HomeschoolwithJen  3 года назад

      Thank you for watching. We use MasterBooks for history, geography, and science. I like it for these subjects (mostly) since we can bring in other materials that we think are interesting. I watched your MB video and think we would be on the same page regarding the LLFLE. Have a great day!

    Not into a lot of writing around here either 😅🤣
    We are skipping those timeline pages that are at the end of each chapter! We do love everything else in the teacher manual. Great review 😊

    • @HomeschoolwithJen
      @HomeschoolwithJen  3 года назад

      HAHAHAHA! We still aren't big fans of writing, but we love history. Thank you for watching and commenting. I'm glad that you enjoyed the video. Are you going to do AS 2 next year????

    Would you buy the teacher’s guide for anything or do you feel it is completely unnecessary?

    • @HomeschoolwithJen
      @HomeschoolwithJen  Год назад

      Gerat question! I actually use the teacher's guides for many subjects. I just didn't feel it was necessary for this curriculum.

  • @allyh193
    @allyh193 3 года назад

    Did you read the book to your student or did they read it on their own? My boys do enjoy history. 😊

    • @HomeschoolwithJen
      @HomeschoolwithJen  3 года назад

      Both. We read it together most of the time. If she read it on her own, then we would discuss. Thank you for watching! Please let me know if you have any additional questions. Have a great day!
