Hi Amanda! I was curious to see what you’re using for history this year after finishing History of the Ancient World. How did you like HotAW? I’m not sure what I want to to after MFW ancients so I’m looking for ideas. 🙂 Maybe Beautiful Feet Medievel, but I’m not sure. I don’t have any experience with BF. Thanks for your great blog posts! ~ Julie
We’re using History of the Medieval World this year. I really like how thorough it is. I haven’t really used Beautiful Feet beyond their History of the Horse curriculum, so I’m not sure how it stacks up.
