The Year of Miss Agnes
Ten-year-old Frederika (Fred for short) doesn’t have much faith that the new teacher in town will last very long. After all, they never do. Most teachers who come to their one-room schoolhouse in remote, Alaska leave at the first smell of fish, claiming that life there is just too hard.
But Miss Agnes is different — she doesn’t get frustrated with her students, and she throws away old textbooks and reads Robin Hood instead! For the first time, Fred and her classmates begin to enjoy their lessons and learn to read and write — but will Miss Agnes be like all the rest and leave as quickly as she came?$1.00$5.99The Year of Miss Agnes

Early Times: The Story of Ancient Egypt
Nearly 5,000 years ago, a great and powerful empire emerged from the fertile silt along the Nile River. Colossal temples and monuments rose from the surrounding desert plateaus and valleys. Miraculously preserved human bodies were sealed away with untold riches in mysterious hidden tombs. Strange markings, the archaic symbols of an advanced bygone civilization revealed animal headed gods, powerful kings, and mighty warriors. Get ready to discover the fascinating world of the ancient Egyptians.
Uncover the incredible secrets of ancient Egypt:
How were Mummies prepared for their epic journey into the afterlife? The bizarre rituals and grisly methods of ancient embalming may shock you!
How in the world could such an early civilization engineer and erect gargantuan monuments like the Pyramids of Giza, the Sphinx, or the temple at Karnak?
Evidence shows that Egyptians accurately predicted eclipses, floods and even created the first solar calendar to record the passage of time. Could these early astronomers actually use the stars to measure time and space?
What happened when then when someone got sick, broke a bone, or got a cavity? Ancient Egyptians were among the first physicians, but often their cures were just as life-threatening!
The Story of Ancient Egypt explores over 3,000 years of Egyptian history, from the early development of farming communities that spawned along the fertile Nile River, to the soaring temples and monuments of New Kingdom imperial Egypt.Each chapter is followed by a short quiz, additional discussion points, and suggested activities to delve further into the mysteries of ancient Egypt.

The Greenleaf Guide to Ancient Egypt
Ever wonder how biblical history and ancient Egyptian history fit together? Why was God so angry with Pharaoh, anyway? These were questions we asked when we began our study of Ancient Egypt. We wanted to start our study of Western history by beginning at the beginning. After reading through the Old Testament (which is history, after all) we study ancient Egypt. The Greenleaf Guide to Ancient Egypt presents ten lesson plans, using the six books listed below. Included are vocabulary lists and discussion questions drawn from the reading. Also included are directions for playing a checkers like game found in Tut s tomb, directions for building a model shaduf (irrigate like the Egyptians!), as well as suggestions for how to adapt your study to fit grades 2-7. Home school tested. Excellent for Konos or Unit studies. Average duration is about 15 weeks.
