Get Ready! for Social Studies : World History

This title is part of a series, Get Ready! for Social Studies, which is a follow up to the 14 titles already in the Get Ready Series will assist parents in helping their kids develop the core skills they desperately need to do well in their classes, and to perform at grade level in Social Studies subjects. Parents are often at a loss when it comes to helping their children develop necessary study skills, experiencing anxiety at the realization that how their kids perform now can affect their futures permanently. As with the rest of the Series, these five new books will bring sorely needed help. For those students who have a weakness in a Social Studies specific area, these targeted books will provide expert techniques and practice exercises to bring performance up to speed in class work, and as a bonus, give them a head start toward prep for state-mandated tests. The new Get Ready titles will be filled with tips and techniques for parents who want to help optimize their children’s classroom performance. Organized chronologically from pre-history up to the present, this book shows students and parents developments in all parts of the world during each major time period. In addition to historical events and related economic developments, it deals with movements in art, science, technology, and human thought.
