Many of the Bethlehem Books are incorporated into the reading list in the back of Real Learning as well...

Michele,
Could you tell me what is included in the TM? How does it save you time with narrations?

Natalia

Natalia,

Sorry for the slow reply...I seem to be ever so slow answering e-mails and such anymore.

The reason the TM saves me time with narrations is because the main pints are all right there for me already and i don't have to go back and reread the chapter to make sure a narration is on the right track.

God bless!

I've never seen the Bethlehem History Library before! Wow! I'd love to use them, but it would be very expensive.

Maybe we can use a few next year, we'll see.

We've been using From Sea to Shining Sea, and we've incorporated other books as well. We're reading *The World of Christopher Columbus* by Genevieve Foster along with it, etc.

We're REALLY enjoying using this as a spine for our history, including historical fiction, projects (for my very hands on learner), and lots of discussion.

I really feel this has been our very BEST year of history yet, and am SO happy because it's thoroughly Catholic and laid out, yet allows me the wonderful flexibility that I need to add exactly what I need for my unique family!

It's been WONDERFUL to use this text, and I can't wait to use All Ye Lands next year as our spine!

I too hope they come out with more, more, more!
