Teaches: ancient history of the Egyptians, Aztecs and Vikings

CTR Review

Based on the book series by the same name, this is an excellent source of information on what it was like to live in three different times and places. After hearing and reading numerous facts about the Aztecs, Egyptians and Vikings, kids test their knowledge in multiple-choice quizzes to "survive." Women's roles, the nature of the government, spiritual beliefs and much more are covered for each society. The interesting content and high quality illustrations make this CD worthwhile, particularly for a school setting.
