World History: Teacher’s Guide
The World History: Teacher’s Guide is sure to be your most trusted ally this high school year! It has 35 weeks of ‘open and go’ 4-day plans that are each shown on a 2-page spread. World History is written with the busy homeschool student in mind, so each week of plans takes only 4 days. Consequently, this leaves the 5th day free for students to pursue individual interests.
Daily plans take about 7 hours. Following the plans as written will allow your student to earn 6 ½ – 7 total credits for this year of study. This guide is ideally targeted for students in grade 10, but students in grades 11-12 may use it by adjusting the 3R’s and science as needed.
The World History guide includes the following 6 ½ – 7 high school credits:
- World History (1 full-year credit)
- Fine Arts (½ – 1 full-year credit)
- Bible: Old Testament Survey and Pilgrim’s Progress (1 full-year credit)
- Foreign Language: Spanish I (½ credit)
- Health (½ credit)
- English II (composed of ½ credit of Literature and ½ credit of Composition/Grammar = 1 full-year credit)
- Science: Biology with Lab (1 full-year credit)
- Suggested Math: Algebra II or Geometry (1 full-year credit)
Total Credits Earned: 6 ½ – 7 Credits

More about this guide
Each day of plans addresses both academic and spiritual needs, making sure not to neglect either area. Additionally, plans give clear guidance in what to expect of your high school student each day and feature a balanced approach to learning.
The guide uses narrative books as the core of the student’s education to cover needed academics in a living, engaging manner. The design and layout of the guide provides clear direction in calculating grades, counting credits, and recording courses for transcript purposes. The guide also includes course descriptions.
Note: It is important to consult your state laws for specific requirements for credit and to be aware of the entrance requirements for any college or university your student plans to attend.
Note: For transcript purposes, students may combine the ½ credit of Spanish I earned in the World Geography guide with the ½ credit of Spanish I earned in the World History guide. This will allow them to list 1-full year credit in Spanish I instead.
