Story of the World Volume 3 Lesson Plans

[Pages:8]Story of the World Volume 3 Lesson Plans

These plans look a bit different than the ones I created for SOTW 1 and SOTW 2. This is because I have become a bit freer with my plans . I now prefer to have weekly goals instead of daily ones planned out for the year and this is reflected in how I laid out these plans. Also I have not scheduled copywork as I will have my daughter writing all her own narrations this year.

I used the following books for our history studies... 1. Story of the World: Volume 3, Early Modern Times 2. D'Aulaire's Pochohantus 3. Landmark's Landing of the Pilgrims 4. Peter the Great by Diane Stanley 5. Boston Tea Party 6. Winter at Valley Forge 7. A More Perfect Union 8. American Adventures, part 1 9. The Louisiana Purchase 10. Lewis & Clark (from The World Greatest Explorers) 11. Usborne's Who Were the North American Indians 12. Only the Names Remain 13. Susanna of the Alamo 14. California Gold Rush

I used the following readers... 1. Don Quixote (abridged version) 2. Pochohantus & the Strangers 3. Adventures of Tom Sawyer (abridged version) 4. A Lion to Guard Us 5. Mary of Plymouth (free at google books) 6. Chinese Myths and Fables (selected ones) 7. The Bears on Hemlock Mountain 8. The Three Musketeers (abridged version) 9. Marie Curie's Search for Radium (part of Elemental Science's plans) 10. Jane Austen 11. The Story of Daniel Boone 12. Phoebe the Spy 13. Mr. Revere and I 14. Abigail Adams: A Girl... 15. Ben & Me 16. Meet George Washington 17. The Cabin faced West 18. James Cook: the Pacific Coast and beyond 19. Robert Fulton 20. Confucius and the Golden Rule 21. Napoleon 22. Oliver Twist (abridged version) 23. Naya Nuki 24. Louis Pastuer's Fight against Microbes (part of Elemental Science's plans) 25. Sojourner Truth: The Path of Glory 26. The Courage of Sarah Noble

Dye your own Shirt Directions:

Colonists gathered plants to make dye to color their clothing. Walnut shells were used fir brown, berries for blue or red, poplar leaves for yellow and flowers for yellow or blue. Onion skins were used to create a soft shade of yellow. To dye a shirt you will need: yellow-brown papery outer layers from 6 onions (ask the grocery store for some when the bins are cleaned-he'll probably give you some) , large pot, water, slotted spoon, measuring spoons, white all cotton t-shirt or socks. Put onion skins in the pot and cover with water. Heat to a boil and simmer 20 minutes. Scoop out the onion skins. Heat the water again and drop the T-shirt or socks into the hot dye bath. To set the dye so it won't wash out, add 2 tbsp. of white vinegar to the dye bath. Turn off the heat and let the shirt soak in the dye for about an hour. Wring the clothing out and put it in a sink or pan of cool water to rinse. Wring out the clothing and let dry. The color will depend on how many skins were used and how diluted the dye was.
