Complete Middle School World History Curriculum

Are you looking for a world history curriculum for your middle school student that is complete and easy to use? From Adam to Us is a one-year course that is centered in God's Word and makes learning about the past exciting for homeschooling students and parents.

Who Can Use It

Authors Ray and Charlene Notgrass designed the curriculum for students to use successfully in 5th grade, 6th grade, 7th grade, or 8th grade. It combines the flexibility and richness of a literature-based unit study approach with the simplicity of a textbook-based approach.

Daily lessons guide your child chronologically through the history of the world from Creation to the present, highlighting key events, people, and places. With the lessons planned for you, you can enjoy learning history with your student, or your student can use the curriculum independently.
