My Story 2 (J826)
My Story 2 (J826)
This book of adventure is going to help you learn about something called social studies. Social studies is about people and places around the world. We will talk about what people eat, where our food comes from, how governments are set up, the symbols on flags from different countries and what they mean, how God teaches us to love the people of the world like He does, and much more. The language of this book is English, but we'll share some Italian and Chinese words with you too!
My Story, My Country, My World is a course for lower elementary students. It includes basic introductions to history, politics, economics, sociology, and geography, with the ultimate aim of teaching a comprehensive understanding of God's world and the cultures of each country.
This is a daily adventure-based curriculum series that encourages families to explore the world together through four nine-week quests and to understand it better from God's perspective. It is designed with elements that make weekly learning fun and interactive, including:
-Thankful Time!
-Government Time!
-God's Creation Time!
-My Story Journal
It's time to explore God's world and to learn more about others; and more about you too! Get your Quest Collector Cards ready. Each card includes your world map showing the path of each of your four journeys.
