Welcome
to our Memorable Places American History Curriculum Microsoft Word download page!
If you have not read our
introduction, please do.
If
you don't have Microsoft Word, you can get a FREE open source program that is
compatible here.
Our
Word document makes it easy for you to print our history curriculum out and place
it into a 3 ring binder. It does NOT contain all of the pictures, helps and extras
our online curriculum has in order to conserve bandwidth. It does, however, have
a full 34 week day-by-day schedule with all the necessary notes, links and more
to help you have a successful and memory filled year.
Because
it's a Word document, you can EDIT it, tweak it, change it and customize it for
your family. You aren't stuck with my choices, my scheduling, or my ideas. Use
the document as a framework for your own year, or just make a few substitutions
and/or changes. Highlight it, move things around, add to it! It's up to you!
Our
schedule is designed to be a 2 page spread for each week. You may want to consider
hole punching the first page of a week on the right side and the second page of
a week on the left side. That way, when you open up your schedule, you will be
able to see each week with all of its notes at a glance. Websites are linked and
can be clicked while online, but are not in a text format. I recommend you visiting
the sites for worksheets and printables you are interested in ahead of time so
you can print them out and put them into your binder to be accessed easily.
You
may also want to make a folder of bookmarks in your browser for linked online
activities. My recommendation would be to make a folder titled "American
History" and then within the folder put separate folders for each week ("week
1", "week 2" and so on). Please make sure you preview each link
since the Internet has a way of changing overnight at times!
Also
- our book notes and other materials and resources that are part of this study
can only be accessed online. Please visit our main
online history page to see the extra resources we have available. We may add
new resources we come across or fix and update existing materials and links on
our website before we update our PDF and Word documents. If we update our Word
document, we will make a note of it at the top of this page.

You
