 Why should we study history?

“The kind of events that once took place will by reason of human nature take place again.”

−Thucydides

“That is the supreme value of history. The study of it is the best guarantee against repeating it.”

− John Buchan, Baron Tweedsmuir

“The time for extracting a lesson from history is ever at hand for those who are wise.”

− Demosthenes

“Take hold of instruction; let her not go. Keep her; for she is thy life.”

− Solomon (Proverbs 4:13)

 Introduction

It only makes sense to study geography alongside history. In history, we learn about
times, places and people. Geography covers the “places” part. Each aspect of historical study
is important in its own right, but they cannot be studied exclusively of one another. For
example, when you study Alexander the Great, it only makes sense to see the large land area
that he conquered by looking at a map. Modern maps will not give you the same information or
perspective as historical maps do.

We, at Knowledge Quest, Inc., have set out to provide you with the most usable,
yet attractive, historical map book possible. Within these pages, you will find a full-color
historical atlas for the teacher, along with blank outline maps for the student. In this way, the
teacher has full access to the answers thereby eliminating any frustration or bewilderment on
her part. The teacher may decide whether to provide this answer map to her students, or have
them research the answers on their own using a globe, wall map, internet search or another
historical atlas.

As the teacher, you may wish to print out this entire ebook. However, if you want to
save on the expense of printer ink or toner, you might prefer to print only the student maps,
which will exhaust a minimal amount of ink. The water is shaded a very slight (10%) blue so as
to help the students differentiate the water from the land masses.

Lesson plans have been included for you. They have been broken down into three
categories for learners in various stages. Level A is for children who are in grades 1-4. However,
if you have a kindergarten who is ready for a little challenge or a 5th grader that needs some
extra assistance, feel free to adjust these ranges to suit your students’ needs. Also, with this
age group, the teacher should be willing to help with spelling or writing if the child needs some
help. Often times, a child’s brain is much more advanced and ready for information than his
hand is in recording it! Map work should be fun and interactive; not a test or drill.

Level B is for students in 5th through 8th grade. These kids are ready for additional
challenge and are capable of more writing/recording than the younger kids. Level C is for high
schoolers (9th through 12th grade) and includes the most challenging assignments. They are
often asked to do some research in order to fill in their maps completely.

Teachers, please remember, no matter what age or stage your child is in, learning
geography comes with familiarity and repetition. In fact, if the student incorporates all of these
maps into his study of world history, he will begin to memorize geographical facts that will
remain with him for a lifetime. If you feel that your student needs extra geography review or
perhaps a different way to learn it, please check out this free resource:

Globalmania - http://www.knowledgequestmaps.com/globalmania.htm
 Since these maps are chronological in sequence, you may use them easily with any
chronological history program. Some good history curricula to consider are:

★ TruthQuest History
★ Story of the World
★ Biblioplan for Families
★ Tapestry of Grace
★ Sonlight Curriculum
★ Mystery of History
★ My Father’s World
★ Learning Adventures
★ Living Books Curriculum
★ Ambleside Online
★ Heart of Dakota
★ Winter Promise

This is certainly not an exhaustive list and there are many other good history programs to choose from.

To gain the most benefit from these outline maps, it would be advantageous to have
on hand a globe, wall map and/or separate atlas for reference. The student may be asked to
look something up on the globe and then label it onto the blank map. Also, have available
some decent art supplies. As your student matures, he or she should be expected to present
to you upon completion a neatly colored or pencil shaded map. For variety, allow your child
to experiment with watercolors for a different effect, or let her use glue and glitter on a major
route. No matter what their age, children should always be encouraged to do their best.

Once completed, your children may want to post these maps to a bulletin board or
the refrigerator. Our students compile the maps into a notebook along with narrations from
history books we have read and pictures of historical events that the children have drawn
and captioned. When we have completed a unit of history study, the children have their own
“book” which they have made which tells the story of the history that they have learned and
summarized. The maps make nice colorful entries into their notebooks.

There are enough maps included in this unit so that you can assign map work once a
week. You may want to schedule a specific time for this activity during the week. Or perhaps
you will want to hand your kids a map to label and color while you read from your history
book or text. How and when you assign map work is up to you, but I find that I am much more
likely to actually work on the maps if I have it scheduled into our weekly school calendar.

We hope these maps enhance your study of history and make learning geography and
enjoyable and interactive learning experience for your children.
