    Lots of fun activities! The map work is very helpful.

    Not worth the cost

    Danica

    Honestly, this activity book is disappointing. Essentially just an expensive coloring book. Yes, there are lesson plans for each chapter, but much of it are just book suggestions and the art activity directions (like how to make a paper mache vase) are poorly written. I love The Story of the World book, but this companion book is not worth it.
    Also, it came in a disgusting recycled package that was all ripped and spewed recycled paper confetti everywhere.

      Danica, I’m sorry the Activity Book didn’t work out well for you! While we think that activities like building an Assyrian siege tower and rewriting the Code of Hammurabi add a certain flair and memorability to history study that mere coloring books do not, we also understand that sometimes a great book just doesn’t suit every student. We do offer a 30-day satisfaction guarantee on our products.

      We are always striving to improve, so please email [email protected] if instructions are ever unclear. We will help, and also consider whether the instructions need to change for the next printing.

  3. Question

    Lisa

    Hi there, If I order the Activity book is that able to give me everything the child needs in one place – as in colouring in pages and activities. Do I have to purchase the Activity book and the colouring in pages and the student pages. My child has just turned 7 and so the worksheets will be way overy his head. This will be very much have to have a high parent involvment as our child is still in the early stages of learning to read.

      The Activity Book has one full set of Student Pages, including the maps, coloring pages, and pages needed for activities and crafts. You do not need to purchase coloring pages or student pages separately for a single student.

      The Student Pages PDF is a separate purchase. One set of Student Pages is included in the Activity Book, and you may copy them from the book or print them from the PDF for your household family. If you do have the physical copy of the Activity Book and do not wish to copy from it for your children, you can buy just the Student Pages as either a PDF or a bound book.

      The pages in the front section (the ones for the instructor) aren’t, but the pages in the back (the ones that the student will write on, color, cut out, or use) are perforated.
