[quote=Anonymous]@13:18, while they do a "topics" approach to history before grade 4, it is somewhat done in chronological order. At least at our school(s). Grade 4 is definitely a history survey, but just Virginia history. Grade 5 is a loose world history survey where they jump around the world. My kids has a text for grades 4 and 5, but they never brought it home. If they needed it, they used the on-line version. Grades 6/7 are a 2 year US History survey with an SOL at the end. There is an on-line text for home. Grade 8 is Civics and definitely a text, but no "survey". That's as far as we've gotten in FCPS. :) I have seen different math teachers use texts to different extents. Algebra and Geometry teachers used the text a lot more than in elementary school.[/quote]
