Does anyone know of a very basic list of important dates for memorization?

Everything I can find seems like too much for the grammatical stage.

Sara, do you have a copy of Designing Your Own Classical Curriculum?

Laura has a list in there for 3rd grade that's quite manageable. I've used it with my dc with success.

It looks like one date is introduced every 2 weeks.

Tami-

I do have that book and her list is exactly what I am looking for, but it only covers American history. Is there anything similar out there for world history?

You could get The Checklist by Cindy Downes It has a TON of lists for science and history.

The Homeschoolers Book of Lists might be something you'd be interested in as well.
