Take a Stand! American Revolution Teacher's Key and Student's Edition
The Take a Stand! series teaches students how to be historians. They learn not what to think or memorize, 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. You will need to use history texts and documents to complete the Take a Stand! method.

History Text Recommendations
We have made a sample 32-week reading plan based on the Take a Stand! Ancient Civilizations book. Our texts we chose represent a variety of primary sources. Primary source documents are valuable because they compel the student to form his own perspective on what actually happened using eyewitness sources. The secondary source book we chose has a respectful view of Judeo-Christian culture, uses many facts and historical pieces of evidence, and is accessible to a broad range of students. The parent or teacher is encouraged to use additional texts, as well.
