The package comes with the timeline and maps, both of which we liked. My daughter worked the lesson review workbook, and she liked having a workbook to write in and having questions to test her learning. The red student workbook was a little young for her (6th grade) and it felt lot busy work, so we decided not to complete that. Hope this helps.

All of the items in the curriculum package are essential to the program. Optional items, which help measure your students understanding of the curriculum, are the Student Workbook (WW668952), designed for 5th- and 6th-graders, and the Lesson Review book (WW668537), designed for 7th- and 8th-graders.

Working one lesson per week, it covers one year. We actually took about 11 months, but that's because we don't always work five days a week. We worked the map book as well as the activity book for upper elementary level. My daughter enjoyed this curriculum, and I think you will too.

Question
can younger kids use this
My daughter will be in 4th grade next year. She reads at an advanced level and enjoys history. Could this curriculum be used with a fourth grader or would it be to advanced?

I think a fourth grader that reads well could do this curriculum. My daughter just finished it in 6th grade, and she enjoyed it. The material is relevant for any middle school age. We definitely recommend this product, as well as their high school history products.

This curriculum is designed for Middle School, Grades 5-8 (Ages 10-14). We recommend viewing the sample pages available for the kit and the individual items to see if this curriculum would work with your daughter.

The text books America the Beautiful I & II and We the People can be used by multiple students. You could share the timeline if you don't care who writes in it. But each student should probably have their own map book to work in. We also purchased the separate student workbook. Each student would need their own.

For use with additional students you will need extra copies of the Timeline (WW668846) and Maps (WW668627). You might also want to purchase either the Student Workbook (WW668952) or Lesson Review Book (WW668537), which are not included in the kit, for each student.
