Hi! My dc's are HG and oriented to the humanities (history, English, writing) and social sciences. As we face HS, I could use advice on a sequence of courses. I looked at a typical 9th grade text in World Geography for HS, and it was really lite (ironic spelling intended). Here are the landforms of North America (2-3 pages); here is the climate (2-3 pages), and here are two examples drawn randomly from 10,000 years of history showing how people adapt. Now let's move on to South America!
I am not kidding. Not.
So looking at higher-level HS, would a Modern World History course be a good bet? Or should we (as homeschoolers, we have the option) chuck the standard survey text offerings and just go for in-depth studies -- e.g., a year on the two World Wars or comparative revolutions or something more college-y?
Or should we dive into the AP world of European History?
I'd value ANY experiences!
