History is one subject that I’ve thoroughly enjoyed learning
more about alongside the boys over the past few years. One
component that I felt I had little knowledge of from my youth is
the related subject of geography. So I am constantly striving to
include geography in our social studies for the boys. Knowledge
Quest has provided some wonderful map collections that we’ve
tapped into over the years of homeschooling. Now they are taking
it up a notch for select time periods of history with Time Maps.
About Time Maps: The goal of TimeMaps is to communicate history
in a truly engaging way. To do this, we use a combination of
timelines, historical maps and encyclopedic entries merged
together to deliver authoritative content that can be digested
in an enjoyable way. TimeMaps are computer software files that
use Flash – a free program from Adobe. Maps are shown in
chronological order at the click of a button and progress at
your timing, showing how civilizations, countries and continents
have changed over time. Qu
