I've been looking over what I could use for 6th grade ancient history. Old World and America, Founders of Freedom and something else (can't think of the name). Anyway, I know somewhere someone posted a reading list that coincided with ancient history by chapter for this time period matching up chapters with Old World and America with the SOTW, but I can't find it. I'm thinking of either getting SOTW and the activity guide or just using the activity guide with what I already have.

Anyone know what I'm talking about. Or did I dream this???

Thanks!

You'd want to purchase SOTW Level Volume 3 to match old World America. The other volumes are great span of info too.

(SOTW Vol 4 is Modern History (1949 through now)

I found the list. It was SOTW II that a member had done matching Usborne World History, OWA, and Story of the Church with Vol II. I printed it out for safe keeping this time.

So I will probably just get SOTW I and use other things I have on hand. I found that I have quite a few resources for ancient history -Famous Men of Greece, Story of the Romans, and Story of the Greeks. Maybe just the activity guide is all I will need??? Okay, now I'm thinking out loud.

hsmom, the SOTW activity guide will have lists of books to use along with SOTW I, and Sonlight's core 6 has plenty of suggestions as well. Old World and America does briefly cover this time period as well, but only a few chapters at the beginning.
