History Odyssey Ancient Civilizations

Our first year of homeschooling both girls is almost coming to an end. It is amazing how much they have both grown and discovered this year. We spent June looking over our History Odyssey Ancient Civilizations curriculum and all the History Pockets the girls created. I loved this curriculum and look forward to starting Middle Ages in August.

This year we did Ancient Civilizations Level 1 and really enjoyed all the hands on projects that came along with it.
