Seeds & How Plants Grow · Ancient Rome · Rocks, Volcanoes & the Earth Inside · The Fifty States · The Book of Centuries

Volume Three takes every strand of the first two one step further - the seed inside the fruit, Rome after Greece, the rock under the map, and a timeline that holds it all.

The five units

I Seeds & How Plants Grow - a plant in a box
What is inside a seed · how seeds travel · eight seeds to know · a two-week bean diary		 pp. 6–13
II Ancient Rome - one city, then the world
A town on seven hills · all roads · republic to empire · Roman numerals		 pp. 14–21
III Rocks, Volcanoes & the Earth Inside - under our feet
An egg with a cracked shell · the moving floor · the rock cycle · eight rocks to know		 pp. 22–29
IV The Fifty States - fifty pieces, one map
How the map filled in · why capitals are where they are · state symbols · a fifty-state wall poster		 pp. 30–37
V The Book of Centuries - every date on one line
How it works · counting across zero · century spreads · your family on the line		 pp. 38–45

Back matter: answer key for all eight worksheets, pages 46–47.

How it works

Print one unit at a time - eight pages is roughly two weeks of short lessons. Read the read-aloud pages out loud (about three minutes each), put the poster on the wall, and keep the worksheets for last. Thirty minutes a day is a full lesson, and the same page works for a five-year-old and a twelve-year-old at the same table.

What you get

  • 47 pages, US Letter, plus a cover - a single PDF, ready to print at home
  • Five unit studies: opener, two read-aloud pages, two diagrams, a wall poster and two worksheets each
  • Original watercolour artwork throughout, at 300 dpi, plus accurate vector maps of all fifty states
  • Answer key for all eight worksheets, so nobody has to look anything up
  • Parent guide, printing guide and a progress tracker in the front matter
  • Prints fine in grayscale - no exercise depends on telling one colour from another
  • Also prints on A4 at “fit to printable area”

Ages

5–12, multi-age by design. Each page carries three levels: what the youngest listens to, what the middle reads aloud, and what the oldest writes.
