Fifty States Under God

Author Joy Dean gives several plans to complete the 50 States Under God course: one-semester, one-year, or two-years when combined with Geography of the Fifty States. Your student will study each state in the order it was admitted into the union, not based on the alphabet or geographical location. Doesn’t it make more sense to do it in historical order?

Here’s an additional way to use this course. Integrate the study of each state—in the chronological order of statehood—with your regular United States history course(s). Typically, students study American history several times. You can explore the states as they fit in the timeline of your curriculum. Studying each state as it joins the union helps your student put historical events in proper order. It’s also a pleasant break from a regular textbook course with a variety of activities and questions. With the additional stories about each state, you can add a Christian perspective to a secular history course. There’s also a list of historical sites for each state that makes it easy to add field trips in your area or as you travel.
