  • Veritas Press Omnibus Self Paced Courses

    Self-paced Omnibus courses are geared for 7th – 12th graders. Omnibus is a Latin term meaning “all encompassing.” Combining history, theology and literature, these courses help students grow in their appreciation of the unity of all knowledge. Each year offers two courses; the primary books course and the secondary books course. They can be taken separately, but taken together, students earn three credits—history, theology and literature.

    • Learn from experts in each subject area
    • Tour the locations where history occurred
    • Be challenged by interactive exercises that require thinking, not just learning facts
    • Interact with the Great Books, all from a Christian worldview
  • Junior Analytical Grammar

    Jr. Analytical Grammar is intended to introduce the ideas of English grammar to younger students. It is designed to be taught in an 11-week grammar “season” in either 4th or 5th grade. Created in response to requests for materials for younger students, it covers the same material found in the first season of Analytical Grammar, but the exercises are shorter and the reading level is lower. It is also more “interactive.” Rather than the student reading notes, the “notes” are really a series of questions and activities designed to help the child understand the concepts. For grades 4 and 5.

  • TruthQuest Age of Revolution II

    TruthQuest History puts God back at the center of the past.
    Centered on “living books,” this creative approach to history integrates elements of both Charlotte Mason and Classical methods.
    Short, very informal introductions are written directly to the student and open up each topic with a distinctly Christian perspective. Suggestions for activities or writing exercises are often included as well. The booklists follow, with selected annotations on what pages or sections to read and appropriate grade levels for each entry. Incredibly flexible in nature, families can proceed at the pace that’s best for their students as they select “spines,” biographies, in-print books, and out-of-print classics from the extensive lists.

    Proceeding chronologically, entries include lists for Napoleon, War of 1812, Science and Industry, Industrial Revolution, Johnny Appleseed, Santa Fe Trail, Irish Potato Famine, Hudson Taylor, Musicians, Anna Carroll, and other relevant unit-study topics.

    Grades 5-12; may be adapted for younger siblings. 243 pages, softcover, spiral-bound.

    Full resource list is included at the back of the book.
