    Story of the World Activity Book 2 The Middle Ages From the Fall of Rome to the Rise of the Renaissance is authored by Susan Wise Bauer. She is a faculty member of the College of William and Mary, and co-author of "The Well Trained Mind: A Guide to Classical Education at Home."

    Story of the World Activity Book 1 is a companion to Bauer's "Story of the World Volume 2 The Middle Ages From the Fall of Rome to the Rise of the Renaissance. The resource is divided into forty-two chapters which correspond to those in "Story of the World Volume 2 The Middle Ages.

    Each chapter is broken down into the following components:

    Encyclopedia Cross References

    Review Questions

    Narration Exercise

    Additional History Reading

    Corresponding Literature Selections

    Coloring Page

    Map Work

    Review Cards

    Activities (The activities are divided into the following categories: Writing, art, craft, historical, music and cooking.)

    Map Answer Key

    Student Pages

    The author has included sections titled "How to Use This Activity Book" and "Pronunciation Guide for Reading Aloud" to guide the user through the resource. This resource is available in the formats of paperback or PDF-download.

    Based on our experience with this series and the content of the curriculum I would recommend it for Grades 5-8. Overall we have been pleased with Ms. Bauer's approach to World history. To continue your study of World history, I would recommend Story of the World Volume 3 Early Modern times From Elizabeth to the First Forty-Niners.

    I hated History when I was a kid. It was dry and boring reading about a bunch of dead guys and memorizing dates. But Story of the world is fun and entertaining and the activities give my kids a feeling of existing during the time & in the culture they're reading about. Now, when are you going to release the activity books on CD??? That would give them the other 1/2 star!

    A great resource for my 2nd grader

    We are only 3 chapters in to the book and have really enjoyed the discussion questions and ideas for fun activities in this supplemental resource. My son and I read book 1 last year and did the test book as our review after reading the question. That was fine but I see more value and the same opportunity to review in this book. It includes book lists, recipes, crafts, and map work.

    This is a great book! It is full of fun, educational activities to help the kids remember what they read about in the main text book that goes a long with it. We are using it for our 5th grader this year.
