Thanks for the video series. I will definitely check it out. What books have you been reading? I really love your posters. We've been reading about the same time period, so I love how organizing the information into this visual format will help the kids to retain it. We've been filling in a timeline, but I think we need more work like your posters. I feel the crafts we did in the past were fun, but now as the kids are getting older, we need to change tactics a bit too.<br /><br />We all watched the Liberty's Kids series on youtube. I even learned a lot from the cartoon series for kids. This Country of Ours is the book I've been reading with my 13 year old to get a good handle of the timeperiod major events. Those two are fairly well recommended in the homeschool world. The one we've found that's unique is "The Freedom Answer Book" by Judge Andrew P. Napolitano. Depending on your political views you may love or hate this book. We love it! It discusses how supreme court cases have shaped America - mostly by slowly taking away our freedoms. Anyway, look it up especially if you are a Libertarian or a Constitutionalist. Then please give me a few book recommendations. I really admire what you've done.<br /><br />Oh yes - I have a few more video recommendations - Native America Before Colonialization - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7FItlStGMY4<br />Documentary - The Mexican American War http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_JjjaMBoSQE<br />French Indian War I http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XLey9WWCgoA<br />jmommymomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18038986572848163326noreply@blogger.com
