I absolutely LOVE the critical thinking aspects of the (Take a Stand!) curriculum.  Too few curricular address the idea of critical thinking skills.  There is much written for the children to memorize and recount at the appropriate times, but are they understanding what they are reading?  Implementing critical thinking into the reading and discussion of history is a powerful tool to help our children understand what they are reading as  well as form an opinion and knowledge that they will be able to use in many situations in life.   I also love the discussion and multi-age aspects of the curriculum.  Being able to have discussions around the dinner table with family are some of the most important times you will have will your children.  These are very good learning opportunities that are disappearing from too many families today.  The children are able to read the material and discuss it at their level; they will understand the material better with discussion and help teach each other at the same time.  This would also work wonderfully in a homeschool co-op setting!   I have been looking at a number of different social studies programs for the middle and older grades and am very excited to come across Take a Stand!  I am anxious to use it in my homeschool as well as recommend it to others.                    Amy B., Maine - Parent
The Take a Stand! series teaches students how to be historians. They learn not only basic facts of history, but how to analyze the events of the past. This unique approach makes the student an active participation in the analysis of the past. This is the best of critical thinking, Socratic discussion, and analytical writing in history. The Take a Stand! series is not a set of textbooks, but rather thinking, reading, speaking, and writing guides. Take a Stand! shows the student how to be a historian. The Teacher Edition contains the Grammar, Logic, and Rhetoric assignments necessary to teaching a student the basic content of history and the thinking skills needed to be an independent thinker in history. Each chapter contains a list of important vocabulary words (Grammar). Interspersed through the history content are thinking skills and open-ended questions (Logic and Rhetoric). The teacher needs to only follow from page 1 and continue to the end. This series has been made with over 20 years of teaching and publishing experience and represents decades of work and practice. 

The Teacher Edition guides the teacher in providing weekly lesson plans, complete with exact reading assignments, research, and homework. Following the teacher guide will guarantee the teacher completes all lessons for the year without adding any stress involved in planning lessons. The teacher guide shows the teacher how to use the text, how teach the thinking tools of Take a Stand!, and provides teaching suggestions and ideas in how to get the best out of your student(s). ​
