The whole family can be working on the same topic, while each child engages at their own level of maturity. Teachers and parents choose the ‘Thinking Questions’ and ‘Activities’ that are most appropriate for the ability of their student.

Take a 3 year cycle through history, (or take your time over a number of years). Each unit can last one term (or spread it across 2 terms). You are in control of how long you spend on each topic. Just do the basics, or have fun with all the creative and hands-on activities.
