It is fun to sing the history of the United States. I like the pictures for Ancient Civilizations. But my favorite is the Middle Ages! I like the Vikings the most.

The time lines are fun to do. They help me keep dates straight and world events in correct order. They are easy to learn with the hand gestures. The pictures make it easy to visualize historical events.

I like it when we race to see how fast we can say the inventions. Studying the inventions makes me want to be a scientist. I like the pictures that show the gears and how things work on the inside.

I like the pictures because I can picture the events. The pictures help me understand what happened and then I can remember the stories that go with them.

When I was ten years old, I learned all the Presidents of the United States using the "Know the Presidents" activity. Now I am taking U.S. history in high school. Knowing the presidents as well as the history in action helps me make good grades. I know a lot more than other students do.

I like all the inventions. I like the robots best. I want to invent some things too.
(Trenton, age 5) |
The time line tells me the order of things, which things come first. It clears everything up.

I am preparing to take the Advanced Placement History Exam for United States history. I think the time line is cool because as I learn about various events and read different books I can picture where things fit in the overall picture.

I think it has been really been fun to learn about the inventions. It is fun to do the "History in Action." I am now learning the dates. Knowing the order of the inventions helps me understand the other things that were happening in history and what life was like.

I like the walk through. I like Columbus. I want and ship and a sword like his.

I love using our time line for ancient history. I really like the write ups. The brightly colored pictures are so beautiful. I like using them to illustrate the reports I do for my notebook.
(Heather, age 17) |
I just like the colors and how the figures go with the stories. I like Alexander the Great mostly, because we studied Greece and I can relate to him and his life. I like the inventions too, especially the space ship and the computer.
(Glen, age 13) |
I like the pictures of Hammurabi, Noah, Ruth, and Daniel. I like putting the pictures on summaries. They make my reports look good.
(Annalise, age 10) |
It's good to have a visual with dates that you an look at. I especially like the Inventions with the American History.
