Rachael Monreal –
We are currently using this plan as part of the annual subscription. It is very thorough, and more than enough for a social studies program for any elementary student. The literature is top notch, and the songs and art are all what I have come to expect from Pam and the team at YMB. We chose to focus in on our state first, and I plan to come back and do all the LTIL plans once we finish our deep dive in the SW.

Our family has an 11yo, 8yo, 2yo are using this plan in conjunction for a Texas state study and as we’re planning for a trip to California shortly.
The quality of book resources helped our family explore the Alamo recently with more peace that I didn’t have to haphazardly hunt different sources for. It was like reading the plaques of different pieces at the museum in a more relatable way to the kids.
Be sure you have access to a library with a wide range of potential older published books, ILL, or budget for books you love.
