Our World History Curriculum, including Ancient History and Medieval History lessons, is key-concept based. It focuses on the “big six” key concepts for social science, often called GRAPES.

By studying World History through these key concepts, students discover the crucial attributes that helped ancient and medieval civilizations prosper. They also build a framework that supports future learning and connects recurring ideas across history.

Each unit comes with notes, graphic organizers, and review worksheets that have the GRAPES key concepts in mind:

• G= Geography
• R= Religion
• A= Achievements
• P= Politics/Government/Leadership
• E= Economy
• S= Social Classes
