Workbook + Digital Resources | Grades 9–11

Cathy Duffy – “American History: A Story of Courage, Conflict, and Freedom should have a strong appeal to students who like the multi-media format. In addition to an interesting format, the course has content that requires students to think and analyze. Then it challenges them to form and express their own opinions. I think this is a great combination.”

How This Course Works (Day-to-Day)

Each unit is organized into a simple checklist format, making it easy to follow. A typical lesson might include:

·      Watching a short narrated PowerPoint lecture

·      Completing guided workbook activities

·      Exploring interactive resources (maps, videos, primary sources)

·      Answering questions or completing a short assignment

Most lessons can be completed in 30–45 minutes if the goal is to complete the course in one year. For those planning to complete the course in one semester, 60-80 minutes per day is recommended. Students can work independently, while parents stay involved as much—or as little—as they choose.

A Thoughtful Christian Perspective

“While creation confirms the existence of God, history reveals the need for a Saviour.” – Course Author

This course approaches history with a Christian worldview, encouraging students to examine both the achievements and brokenness of humanity across time.
