5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent!,
By Kim C "Kim C" (Colorado) - See all my reviews
This review is from: History Pockets: The American Revolution (Paperback)
As a homeschool Mom I have been looking and looking for a hands on history lesson book for my 5th grader and found nothing till now. This book teaches great, simple history lessons while being completely hands on and I don't have to figure it out on my own. If you've ever attempted to create your own lap books, they are not easy and you pretty much have to figure it out yourself. This book does it all for you. It tells you exactly what page to photo copy from the book, exactly what size and color paper and any other simple supplies you may need. As the Mom teaching, I love this book, but more important, my son is really learning history and for the first time in his life he is enjoying and retaining it! I loved this book so much I purchased every title written!

This review is from: History Pockets: The American Revolution (Paperback)
At a homeschool convention, a speaker mentioned making scapbooks to reflect what the students are learning. History Pockets area a great way to do that for us who are artistically challenged! There are plenty of hands-on activities that fit nicely into a portfolio/scrapbook. I would not use this book as a stand alone though and feel that my child had adequately covered the American Revolution. It needs plenty of books to fill out the information. My daughter has especially enjoyed the Jean Fritz books and History Makers series.

Excellent classroom resource,
This review is from: History Pockets: The American Revolution (Paperback)
This resource is wonderful for either a large classroom or home-school setup, as a supplement to the study of the American War for Independence. It is intended for reproduction, and you can make copies of whatever parts you like. My students especially enjoyed the parts on the spies and coded letters and such. As a teacher, I believe it's important for students to interact with the material as much as possible for it to really sink in and have an impact. These materials are just the ticket.
