Torchlight: Inclusive, comprehensive history lessons within a complete curriculum

While Torchlight offers an outstanding complete curriculum, it also offers individual subjects - and we find it’s history program particularly great! Tiffany Petty was inspired by the lack of good education curriculum that she encountered while she was an educator, so she strived to create her own educational content and share it publicly. Torchlight uses educational methods researched by Tiffany Petty to make a cohesive curriculum with hands on activities and alternatives ways of teaching. Simply purchase, download, and start going through the lesson plans. It's a good choice for those who want to have a secular type of curricular that incorporates hands on learning and values diversity. It's not suited for people who want different methods of learning and media involved.

Grades: PK- 5th grade

Cost: The resource costs about $30 and is great for anyone looking for secular and solid curriculum for young children.
