ALL GRADES
This year's focus is the study of the Middle Ages through the signing of the Constitution. 
We use Story of the World by Susan Wise Bauer for the early elementary children, focusing on hands-on projects to understand the historical content.

For the older children, we use the Tapestry of Grace curriculum which includes a spectrum of age-based activities for students. For additional information, look at the website: http://www.lampstandbookshelf.com/ZC/index.php
