We just started with level 1 history with generations. Even in the early elementary years I love how they incorporate Godliness or ungodliness into everything and explaining in a biblical perspective. Ive looked into some history curriculums aimed for middle and high school and a lot of times they just weave the "christian" history (stuff from the bible) into the timeline of "regular" history. Yes they do mention that God created the world but thats about it. I am glad we found Generations. I like how they are very strong in history and making it a biblical worldview as well. Will continue to use their history stuff up till grade 12.
Thank you for the review and information! I love seeing videos on the Generations Curriculum and there's not very many people who do them. I'm not homeschooling just yet ( my eldest is only 3.5) but I plan on using them when she gets to the 1st grade, and through the 12th.
I appreciate you stopping by and sharing. It’s encouraging to know these videos are helpful-even if for a bit later. ☺️ Many blessings to you. Enjoy those sweet little years. They are such a joy. 💗
We just started with level 1 which is The Story of Jesus' People and we love it. We just read and narrate and discuss. You can use the accompanying workbook if you choose to. I've looked into all the level even the highschool ones and will be using them all. The only thing we will supplement (which I find it hard to find a curriculum just as good and biblically based as Generations) is Canadian History. We are Canadian so will be skipping the America History stuff thats for middle/highschool in Generations.
This is EXACTLY what I’ve been looking for. I’m new to to homeschooling and can feel your excitement/passion for this curriculum. Does it explain Dinosaurs we’re in the garden w/Adam & Eve?
I don’t remember seeing anything specific to dinosaurs, but it does take a creationist/young earth perspective on ancient times and provides a lot of evidence for it all. ☺️ Thank you for your comment. I’m happy to hear that this was helpful.
Look into Answers in Genesis and Ken Ham stuff. I don't have a specific curriculum to suggest but Ken Ham is all about young earth and talks a lot about dinos. Him and his organization also created the Ark Museum and Creation Museum.
Ok, so I watched your review on MFW CTG. I'm going to be using CTG with my 3rd and 4 th grade boys this coming year. How does Generations compare to MFW?
That’s exciting! This particular World History course by Generations is for high school and covers all major time periods, whereas My Father’s World breaks it all up into a four-year plan. For the younger grades, we loved My Father’s World, especially the booklists and hands-on learning opportunities. Generations also has a history series for the younger grades, but we haven’t used it just yet. A few general differences: Generations includes a textbook and workbook, so it’s more concise and open-and-go. The workbook has extension activities and map work as well, focusing on a particular geographic location. The history that is covered is centered on the advancement of the church in that location, along with some other key historical events. My Father’s World includes readings from a variety of books and includes notebooking pages instead of comprehension-type questions. It also ties in Biblical and world history with an emphasis on a time period instead of a location. Hope that helps! ☺️
