Each chapter is a great read-aloud for a 3rd grader. Then there are a few questions at the end of the chapter. The style of writing is interesting without being hokey. My kindergardener was happy listening too it also and I learned new things as well! Education Reporter, "Children Will Love Discovering 'Lost Classics,'" May 1997 This book is particularly teacher-friendly and well-suited for home schoolers Book Description Continuing the biographical approach to teaching history found in his Stories of Great Americans for Little Americans, Eggleston draws a more in-depth picture of the development of the United Ststes using the stories of the living and breathing Americans who made it all happen. Especially valuable for home schoolers or those simply wishing to supplement their children's education, here you'll find all the features you would expect in a teacher-friendly textbook: study questions after each chapter, definitions of pertinent words, maps and illustrations, and an index for easy cross-reference. |
