World History Detective

World History Detective

World History Detective rises above the simple read-and-regurgitate workbook questions by asking your student to discern which statements in a set of four are facts and which are opinions. Or he might be asked to determine which phrases can be inferred from the lesson or which sentences best support a particular theory. 

World History Detective is written for the young teen student looking for a no-frills, independent approach to learning ancient and medieval history. 

No mess, no preparation, and no stress. Just open the book and suss out the varied reasons why an event happened as it did. With today’s raging episodes of fake news, World History Detective’s types of questions will help your child to grasp that those telling the story always interpret history.

Note: World History Detective includes occasional evolutionary assumptions, particularly in the few lessons about prehistory. Families will likely appreciate the non-dogmatic attitude in which these statements are presented. But as always, they will want to be prepared to dialogue with their students about these issues.

Answers are located in the back of this book.
