Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

I'm looking at several Catholic 4th grade texts for history/social studies. Any thoughts on the following?

CHCs Our United States of America
OLVS My World of Neighbors
Land of our Lady Founders if Freedom

I'm not looking for classical or literature based. I need more scholastic/traditional plain easy language with lots of visuals.

Thoughts?

Thank you!

We liked the CHC Our United States. It had nice pictures, glossy pages, and lots of extras, like hIstory mysteries to solve. It is arranged by region, which
is interesting, and some of the states get more of a focus than others. There are several nice Catholic features throughout the book as well.

I would use it again.
