This exciting weekly course covers a complete world history academic curriculum in a fun and interactive way. Learners will become immersed in the wonders of history through fascinating facts, videos, quizzes, experiments, art and craft, worksheets and much more. Each week, learners will complete an activity together in class as we explore our wonderful history together. They will also be given a factfile page to print off which can gradually build up into an encyclopaedia of historical knowledge. There is an optional extra activity that can be completed at home to consolidate their learning. Whether your learner is home schooled or you would just like them to explore a broader curriculum than most schools offer, this course will take them on an epic journey from the dinosaurs, through to Egyptian mummies and the Vikings as well as exploring people who have made history. My goal is to inspire them to become lifetime learners with a thirst for knowledge. They will have the opportunity to develop their skills in understanding, communicating, empathising and analysing at an age appropriate level. Learners are welcome to join any topic that is of particular interest or stay for a longer period of time to cover a full history curriculum. What is covered in this course?
