Product: History Makers; Discovering the Ancient World

Subject: Unit Study--history, art history, music history, geography, language arts (science, but we do not use that component)

Levels Used: 8th/9th grade

Dates Used: 2007/2008; currently DAW

Likes: Thorough analysis of civilization, music, art, and architecture (DAW) using research questionnaires, map work and timelines. Language arts is based on the Institute for Excellence in Writing, and includes video analysis and vocabulary as well.

Dislikes: Need to augment with grammar (if necessary), math, and science, since the science is not "lab based," as you would expect for a high school student.
