Bright Ideas Press
A Young Scholar’s Guide to Composers (download) $24.95 A User-Friendly, One-Year Curriculum for Grades 4-8. Christian, Creative, Chronological. Why take the time to œCrack the Code of Classical Music? Music is from the Lord. He created it, and He created us with the ability to both make and appreciate music. Classical music is uniquely part of our Western civilization. Research suggests that both listening to and playing classical music aids brain development. Even rudimentary exposure increases one’s level of enjoyment and understanding. This course provides a close-up look at famous composers, their music, and their times, with special attention to character traits and Christian testimony (or lack thereof). Even the musically challenged will enjoy this course! It’s perfect for grades 4-8 but is easily adaptable for younger and older students. Minimal teacher prep will return maximum enjoyment!

Knowledge Box Central
Stages of the Ages ™ Timeline Notebook 5000 BC to Present – CD. The “Stages of the Ages (TM) Timeline Notebook” was born out of the frustration within our own homeschool. We had tried several different timeline notebooks, and we had created some of our own. However, the same problems kept cropping up: lack of space to document everything that we wanted to document, crowded pages, inability of the timeline notebooks to “grow” with us as my daughter got older, and more. I wanted to be able to REALLY have only ONE timeline notebook for my daughter…and have it last all the way through the end of high school.
Winner receives Stages of the Ages Timeline Notebook.
