Everyday Life

Interesting storytelling style helps educators make history relevant to middle school students

The EVERYDAY LIFE series chronicles important periods of U.S. and World History with vivid anecdotal narratives that students can read and enjoy on their own.

Each volume not only describes major achievements but also depicts the lives of everyday people—how they thought and behaved, how they dressed and what they ate, how they amused themselves, and how they conducted their home lives.

Historical illustrations and authentic artworks enhance the narrative.

Reproducible activity pages reinforce important skills with puzzles and fun-to-do activities for math, vocabulary, reading comprehension, critical thinking, geography, and writing, as well as arts and crafts taken from the pages of history
