History Scope and Sequence: Sixth to Twelfth Grade
Parents sometimes ask us about the order in which Homeschool Connections’ online history courses should be taken. We answer these inquiries by focusing on the needs of that particular family. Based on recent questions from parents, we offer you two different history scopes and sequences here. (A scope is what to teach and a sequence is when to teach it.)
Note the order of these courses is only a suggestion and can be adjusted to suit a family’s specific needs and interests.
