Homeschool Better Together with Pam Barnhill
YMB #111 Teaching History without a Curriculum: A Conversation with Amy Sloan
Sometimes history texts can be a little dry and uninspiring, but what can homeschoolers do to bring history to life? My guest Amy Sloan eschews the textbooks altogether and simply uses real living books to teach history to her kids. Worried about how to make it happen? Amy breaks down how to do it, where to find the books, and some of the benefits that can come from taking a more interesting approach to history.
