I’m overwhelmed with the choices for Canadian history. Help!

The core curriculum for teaching Canadian History is Courage & Conquest: Discovering Canadian History.  As a stand alone, this curriculum will guide both the teacher and the student, however, it is beneficial to add resources for a rich, storied history.

Bundles linked to Courage & Conquest can be viewed by scrolling down on the shop page to view our favourite resource picks to go with the course. All resources can be purchased in a bundle or individually according to your child’s interest, your budget, and availability of your local library resources. Ownership has definite advantages. The Canadian History All-Inclusive Bundle has a full banquet for discovery and reading. The Canadian History Living Books Bundle includes some great resources and novels.

The online courses that go with Courage & Conquest are light, but give a video introduction to the lesson with added content, audio reading of the lesson content, optional Christian devotionals, curated resources in greater depth than the Lite Membership, help with assignments, and some content for upper levels/high school. These courses allow for a more independent student experience.

The Grade 4: First Peoples and European Contact Inclusive Bundle (Mitchell Made) includes Courage & Conquest, as well a the online course with guidelines for fulfilling the core competencies required for funding in British Columbia.

There are a lot of choices but each homeschool environment has different needs, budgets, and teacher confidence. If you still have questions we can help at info at donnaward dot net
