History Odyssey Ancient Level Three

History Odyssey study guides take the guesswork out of planning history and literature studies. Each guide provides daily lesson plans, map activities, reading lists, hands-on activities, writing assignments and research assignments for studying Ancient History, the Middle Ages, Early Modern History and Modern History. Each History Odyssey study guide is part of a curriculum program that has three levels to accommodate all age groups. Each level builds upon the previous one, preparing students for more in depth study of each time period in history.

History Odyssey brings to life the story of mankind through a comprehensive study of the literature, historical events, and geography of the time period. Each study guide is intended to lead the instructor and student through a year-long study of the Ancients, the Middle Ages, Early Modern, or Modern time periods. They provide the framework and structure for using and organizing many of the best resources available for history and literature. The study guides include easy-to-follow lessons that present history chronologically and include reading and writing assignments, map work, and activities. Each level of History Odyssey progresses gently, preparing the student for more complicated reading and writing.

Level three History Odyssey guides, written for grade 9 and up, present original writings and classic works by such masters as Plato, Homer, and Shakespeare. The lessons guide students in tackling rewarding literature, writing persuasive arguments, forming a thesis, and creating research papers. Level three study guides contain numerous writing and research assignments and prepare students for college entrance.

History Odyssey study guides are written based on three principles:

• History is fun when it is presented as a story.
• History is best studied through the reading of great books.
• History is best taught through a world view with an opportunity to learn about different cultures.

The guides eliminate guesswork by coordinating resources and lesson planning. Our goal is to make history one of your student's favorite subjects.
