This textbook features engaging, narrative-style chapters with full-color photos and illustrations. This flexible program combines the richness of a unit study with the simplicity of a traditional textbook curriculum. Lesson activity ideas, review questions, and hands-on history ideas conclude each chapter; parents can pick and choose which would be best for their individual students to complete. These activities include instructions for using the Star-Spangled Rhythms and Rhymes, A Star-Spangled Timeline, My Star-Spangled Student Workbook and the 8 recommended literature books.

Each lesson takes approximately 10-15 minutes to read through, with additional time as needed for activities. NASB Scripture used. The answer key and literature guide includes answers for the review questions in the student text as well as the student workbook exercises. The literature guide component provides introductions to each of the 8 recommended books that go along with the curriculum as well as a few things for parents to be aware of (if applicable) and discussion questions (with suggested answers). Star-Spangled Rhythms and Rhymes features 60 songs, poems, and dances enjoyed throughout American history; each selection goes with a lesson in the curriculum. A Star-Spangled Timeline provides an easy way to review lesson materials since students can visualize what was happening during each era.
