Purpose and Plan

The Purpose of this course is to teach elementary age school children the history of the world from an LDS perspective, which of course begins before the earth was created. Further I plan to incorporate as much relevant information in as broad a spectrum as possible adaptable for all ages.

This will include
Reading
History
Geography
Science
Math
English (grammer, spelling, punctuation etc
Lunguage Studies (root woods, Latin Hebrew Greek)
Culture studies
Religion Studies (many of the major religions basic beliefs will be discussed reading from their own creeds so as to avoid any bias or misrepresentation  or misinformation)
Health / Phys Ed

We will use
The Bible
The Book of Mormon
The Doctrine & Covenants
The Pearl of Great Price
The Comprehensive History of the Church
Church History
Catechism for Children
as well as online sources such as
www.sacred-texts.org
www.Whitehouse.gov
etc

We will cover controversial topics such as:
Creationism vs evolution
Science Theory vs Science Fact
Dinosaurs
etc
with an open honest discussion illustrating the evidences for and against each topic.
