Lisa Nehring –
From the Age of Explorers to the 21rst century, this curriculum provides a sweeping overview of the complexity of the Modern World. Because of the violence of the last century, I recommend using this with upper elementary students. One of my kids’ favorite curricula; highly recommended!
