Literature By Time Period

Literature and Books always discounted at Schoolhouse Publishing!

I believe history should be studied chronologically so students catch the flow of God's sovereignty and interactions with humans.  If you want to study history chronologically and are looking for a specific time period to study, this section will help you.  We've broken our homeschool literature into specific historical time periods (when possible).  This will make it easy for you to shop curriculum, then to add supplemental literature to support your history curriculum.  Schoolhouse Publishing is known for making your homeschool shopping easy and convenient!
