About History Quest: United States
Chapter Book for Grades 3 to 6+
Through rich and exciting narrative, special History Hop! sections, and hand-drawn illustrations, our History Quest: United States chapter book takes you on an exciting journey into the past—from pre-European civilization in North America, early explorers, and the American Revolution, through decades of growth and change in the United States, up to modern history and the early 2000s.
Created for older elementary-age students, this course explores significant—and sometimes uncomfortable—moments in the history of this country from early settlers through the events of September 11.
Students can use the chapter book as their primary history spine, either as a read aloud or by reading independently.
