The Story of the World Volume 2 Activity Book

I think the companion books are essential to go with the text books. It is a great resource to help cement what was read. I absolutely love this program.

I like this even less than the reading book. It's set up in a way that is overwhelming to an overachiever. We do not have time with all of our other curriculum to participate in many of the suggested activities, which makes me feel like the book is a waste.

The Story of the World Volume Two Activity Book works in conjunction with The Story of the World Volume Two book. This curriculum covers The Middle Ages. Each chapter in the Activity book includes discussion questions to ask your kids at points during the reading, prompts for narrations, a list of suggested additional reading, and a sampling of student activities to choose from. These always include mapwork, and usually a coloring page. You'll also get to choose between various papercrafts, games, clay projects, stem activities, drama suggestions and recipes. Many activities require outside materials, but a lot is likely stuff you already have. This is my favorite series of workbooks for history in our home school.

Love the activities Nd ideas that come in this book. We read the review questions together before reading the corresponding chapter. Then I give my children the coloring sheet to keep their hands busy while they listen to me read to them .

I highly recommend getting this to use with the textbook. There are maps & coloring pages for your child to use with each chapter, review questions to be sure they caught the main points & tons of fun activities you can choose to do as supplements to the lessons (recipes, games, etc)
