"Macedonia, Alexander the Great, and Hellenistic Civilization" World History Workbook

This student-friendly workbook is part of our World History series. "Macedonia, Alexander the Great, and the Hellenistic World" focuses on the formation of Alexander's vast empire and the ensuing Hellenistic civilization which flourished throughout southwestern Asia, northern Africa, and the Mediterranean for approximately 300 years after Alexander's death in Babylon.

Appropriate for all learners, from tweens to teenagers, ages 10 to 100, the beauty of this workbook lies in its simplicity. Complex events and concepts are explained in easy-to-understand text without compromising the amount of content. Whether your student is a younger or less sophisticated reader, or an advanced reader preparing for college placement exams, she or he will gain the necessary content knowledge via this workbook. Brief chunks of text are perforated with questions that range from basic recall to critical thinking. There are also numerous illustrations, as well as map work and a word search puzzle.

Our student workbooks provide learners the opportunity to learn independently. Parents or teachers introduce the topic, then give students the workbook to read and complete. After the workbook has been completed, students have acquired the necessary comprehensive content knowledge to competently discuss the topic with educators and others, and will be motivated to branch their study of the topic into other related lines of inquiry. Works great as a stand-alone item or as a supplement to a larger unit. Check out other titles in this popular (and budget-friendly) series here.

Prep, prep, prep...for many of us, it's a necessity. If you cover a "homeroom" class in the morning, or simply want to get your kids "in the zone" at the start of the day, try a daily online quiz. We have a quiz for every single day of the year. These quizzes run the gamut, with the primary focus on social studies.
