Gone are the days of considering history a dry subject about dead people. Homeschooling opens a world of possibility in teaching living history, from field trips on working historical farms to completing lapbooks and projects on our favorite characters. Historical fiction helps students to feel like they are experiencing the historical setting. It can be a powerful way to help them to understand the lives of the people and times they are studying. Visit this workshop to learn new ways to incorporate historical fiction in your history lessons. Attendees will receive a free lapbook ebook.
