## Description

History Pockets: Ancient Greece [Evan-Moor Educational Publishers] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. History Pockets: Ancient Greece

Review: We've used 4, will buy others - I love most of the Evan Moor workbooks, and have been using them for a few years. I feel no differently about their pocket history books, of which we've used four, so far. They are not a complete lesson on their own, IMO, but they are great for introducing the main points. (Especially for the age that they're geared toward!) It's always easy to pick up other books for more depth, but the hands-on activities in these books are really enjoyable and not very difficult to prepare. My son enjoys working on them while I sometimes read the "deeper history" from our other books, or he works on them while I get to toss the dishes in the dishwasher, LOL! The activities are also a nice way to show progress for homeschooling, if that's the route you take. (Also a nice little "academic scrapbook" to look back on one day!) Some people have said they feel some of the projects are just "busy work." If expressing a bit of art/creativity into a history course is "busy work," then you might agree. I personally enjoy teaching my son about something in as many ways as possible! The only activity I do pass on are the paper dolls (one activity amongst many!), but you could even use those to glue onto construction paper, and have your child write about their clothing, or the "jobs" of the women/men. Use your imagination! :-) I think this book pairs really well with Tools of the Ancient Greeks by Kris Bordessa, of which I have NOT done those activities (too involved and time consuming), but good info. Both books are broken down into family life, warfare, architecture, etc. TAG gives the right amount of info for an upper elementary-aged student, possibly even into middle school. I hope this review helps!! I'm getting ready to buy Ancient Rome Pockets now...
Review: Love it! - I love the History Pockets books! I teach 6th grade Ancient Civilizations to heterogenous classes. These books are fantastic at getting the kids interested in the content. I haven't used many of the activities from the books, but I've used some of the ideas for the activities to create my own. I've used the readings themselves for stations and other activities and they are perfect for struggling readers, but not too simplified for the on grade level and higher kids. The readings also touch on many of the important aspects of the content and are great for introducing the information. I can't write enough to say how much I love these books even if you don't use them to make "pockets." :)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worth the money - even for do-it-yourselfers!
*by B***2 on March 25, 2006*

I procrastinated months before buying this product, saying, "I can do this myself, I don't need everything planned out for me." Yes you CAN search the Internet and photocopy pages from library books and make your own lapbooks/history pockets, but most teachers/homeschoolers have very full plates and it is MUCH easier to use these history pockets as the basis for your project and then supplement with other stuff. After I relented and purchased the Ancient Greece history pockets, I couldn't believe how easily the project fell into place, after weeks of neglect. You - and your kids - will be very pleased with the informative and interesting results. I also purchased the Greek Myths literature pockets and am very pleased with those too. Also, for what it's worth, my kids are in 1st & 2nd grade, more or less, not the 4-6 that is recommended for these pockets. So the pockets have appeal for a broad range of ages. On the other hand, I did find it necessary to do a fair amount of prep work for them - photocopying the pages and cutting out some of the projects. If they were a couple of years older, the history pockets could have been done independently.
