A Unique American History Instructional Model and Package
Finding ways to make learning more relevant
and engaging for students is an important component to homeschooling.
When students connect to the material they are studying, they not only
learn more, they understand more deeply. America: The Last Best Hope
makes the history of America an interesting and exciting journey into
our nation's past.
Raising our Children to be History Detectives!
In honor of Black History Month Homeschool.com's editor-in-chief spoke with James Loewen, author of two inspirational books, "Lies My Teacher Told Me, and Lies Across America."
As Homeschoolers we can help our children learn American history by looking beyond textbooks, as Mr. Loewen suggests in this interview. Through investigation with our children, we can benefit from a broader understanding of the history of our country. Mr. Loewen advises that we encourage our children to question what they learn and look deeper into what they read, hear and see.
Help your children build a successful future by teaching them about the mistakes of the past so that they can have a clearer understanding of where we have been. By doing this, we will give our children the knowledge and power to reshape the future for the greater good.
