State History
Exploring Tennessee is a comprehensive Tennessee history curriculum containing 150 lessons divided into thirty units of five lessons each. It is written from a Christian perspective and designed to be used as a family study of Tennessee state history. We have targeted the material at fourth- through eighth-grade students, but children of all ages can enjoy studying the material together with their parents.
The Story of Georgia by Ray Notgrass contains 75 lessons divided into fifteen units of five lessons each. These lessons survey the history of the state from the Native Americans to the 21st century. They also provide information on the government, culture, and people of Georgia. Also included are suggested enrichment activities such as field trips, writing assignments, and crafts. The Second Edition is updated with full color illustrations.
America from the Beginning
This new “hands-on” American history curriculum is perfect for elementary and junior high. Unlike most other U.S. history curricula for this age group, America from the Beginning starts at creation. From the start, kids learn a non-evolutionary perspective on how the very first inhabitants of America got here, and see the amazing similarities to other cultures. God’s grace toward the United States is obvious and unfolds in an exciting way as students discover the events, inventions, and people from Columbus to the modern day. Co-author Debbie Lawrence is also co-author of God’s Design for Science. Fun activities in each unit make learning easy and even more memorable!

Created for the independent, homeschooling student, Teaching Textbooks has helped thousands of high schoolers gain a firm foundation in upper-level math without constant parental or teacher involvement.
Extraordinarily clear illustrations, examples, and graphs have a non-threatening, hand-drawn look, and engaging real life questions make learning pre-algebra practical and applicable. Textbook examples are clear while the audiovisual support includes lecture, practice and solution CDs for every chapter, homework, and test problem. The review-method structure helps students build problem solving skills as they practice core concepts and rote techniques.
Teaching Textbooks’ new Pre-Algebra Version 2.0 edition now includes automated grading! Students watch the lesson on the computer, work a problem in the consumable workbook, and type their answer into the computer; the computer will then grade the problem. If students choose to view the solution, they can see a step-by-step audiovisual solution.
