What is a spine?
Your spine is the main history text that you choose to read at every lesson with your students. For every lesson, three lessons per week, the BiblioPlan Family Guide gives you reading assignments from popular spines like Story of the World, Mystery of History, History of US and others. You choose your spine, and the Family Guide tells you what readings to assign from it each day. In addition, BiblioPlan offers a spine of its own: the BiblioPlan Companion can serve as either 1) a spine or 2) as a supplement to provide fun facts that will liven up your lessons.

Do BiblioPlan's Cool History assignment sheets fit with more than one spine?
All of BiblioPlan's Cool History questions come from the material in the BiblioPlan Companion. If you are reading another spine, you will probably find most of the answers to your Cool History questions there; but if you don't, you will certainly find them in the Companion. The order of the questions is the same as the order of the material in the Companion.

What spines are available for small children in Year 4 as alternatives to Story of the World?
Since Year 4 SOTW is not recommended for the Littles, BP has scheduled A Child's Story of America and a whole host of smaller, easier books for the younger children to read. Most of them are easily acquired from the library.

The BiblioPlan Companion also helps with the Littles, as parents can select fun and interesting facts for them from its pages.

How does BiblioPlan benefit a family with children from several age groups?
The BiblioPlan Guide provides appropriate readings for each age group. All of the children in the family can study the same topics and years, but with readings chosen specially for them. BiblioPlan's program brings the family together, improves family discussions, and allows older children to help younger children with BiblioPlan Maps and BiblioPlan Cool History assignments. The entire family can participate in BiblioPlan's crafts and activities to make each week of study more memorable.

All of this makes BiblioPlan easy on your wallet, because you won't need separate curriculae for separate age groups. Find as many of the Family Guide's suggested books as possible at your local library, or get them from a free e-reader service!
