Interactive History Lessons for Children
Season One– From witnessing the Pilgrims’ early struggles, the impact of their arrival on the Wampanoag tribe, and the forging of the pivotal alliance between the two groups, students step into the shoes of history’s key players and experience the events that shaped a nation. Our videos provide an immersive journey that uncovers the layered realities of history- the inspiring and the uncomfortable.
"Easy accessibility and the variety of hands-on, interactive lessons."
Having been a teacher, in the classroom or as a homeschool advisor, for the last 27 years, I am thrilled to have access to Unfold History! Students find the videos engaging windows to life in the past. Each episode shows them how their lives are different, or not so different, from the historical characters. As a teacher, I appreciate the easy accessibility and the variety of hands-on, interactive lessons I can choose from to meet the needs of my students. Unfold History makes lesson planning easy with rich resources and activities at your fingertips to help the children enjoy a deeper understanding of the past.
"The historical reenactment videos are high quality."
“Finally, a curriculum that makes history come alive in a way I’ve never come across in 20 years of teaching elementary school. The historical reenactment videos are high quality with attention to detail and well thought out.
It is obvious that a lot of time and effort went into making this curriculum. This is something students won’t learn and forget by next month with the old school method of memorizing facts on a flashcard.”
"The use of storytelling through video adds visual and emotional depth."
“Unfold History is one of the most remarkable learning tools I have ever seen. Miss Jordanna, the teacher, travels through time with her students. The use of storytelling through video adds visual and emotional depth, and transports students into historical events rather than just reading about them. Instead of simply presenting facts, the lesson created a narrative that made historical figures feel real and relatable.
Each episode encourages students to acknowledge other perspectives that may have been happening at the time instead of viewing it through our lens of today. The lessons include curricula that facilitate learning by repetition, creativity and “out of the box” thinking. By placing students in the shoes of those who lived through key moments in history, the lesson encouraged critical thinking and deeper understanding. Best history lessons maybe….ever.”
"Invaluable addition to any homeschool curriculum."
“I am genuinely excited and impressed with this curriculum. Everything about it radiates positivity. It’s heartwarming to see that there are still educators and parents dedicated to what’s best for children and families. 🤍
As a homeschool mom, I highly recommend Unfold History. This resource excels in making history engaging and accessible for children. It caters to different learning styles, allowing visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learners to connect with the material, which enhances retention.
The positive learning environment it fosters is crucial; children absorb information best when they feel excited and safe. Unfold History also promotes family involvement, making it a fantastic tool for meaningful discussions and shared learning experiences. Overall, it is an invaluable addition to any homeschool curriculum, as well as to co-ops, tutoring programs, and other alternative education settings.”
"Help children learn by understanding how it was when an event occurred."
“As a teacher with over 35 years in the classroom, I found this presentation to be refreshing. Rather than approaching the stories from today’s “standards” it was evident the presenters desired to help children learn by understanding how it was when an event occurred.
In the episode I viewed, the children were kindly reminded that they needed to learn how it was instead of how one thinks, “It ought to have been.” As these episodes are developed, students will be exposed to an honest thought process by seeking to understand historical figures and events as they truly were.”
"Impressed with how well they trained and guided the cast."
“Unfold History does an incredible job bringing history to life with their engaging and historically accurate videos. My daughter had the privilege of acting in one of their productions, and I was so impressed with how well they trained and guided the cast.
The team’s dedication to authenticity and their thoughtful approach to preparing the young actors truly shines through in the final product. Highly recommend their work!”
"Brings to life how events actually transpired."
“As I watched the episodes of Unfold History, it occurred to me how you seem to watching a story, and then you realize by the end that you have actually learned something that you didn’t know. That realized learning may be some small details or a fuller perspective of the history itself.
It brings to life how events actually transpired, and makes it so much more enjoyable as the pieces fall into place on your educational journey. Being entertained as your knowledge increases is a very subtle yet effective way to learn. Great job to the folks at Unfold History, keep up the great work.”
"It’s relatable, easy to use for the parent and student."
“UnFold History has created a program that my child actually wants to watch! History curriculum that makes her ask questions and stop to pause and think about the past and how it affects our family today. It’s relatable, easy to use for the parent and student. Videos and materials are engaging and to the point.”
