Welcome to Living History Threads, level 3|4!
Level 3|4 is intended for use in third- and fourth-grade classrooms. Most schools combine these grades for history class and teach Levels 3|4 and 4|3 in alternating years, but Threads also works well in single-grade classrooms. Level 3|4 is designed for 40-minute class periods, four days per week for 32 weeks. The following materials are needed:
-
- Teacher Guide x 1
- Classroom picture and map set x 1
- Timeline (shared with Level 4|3) x 1
- Anthology of stories x 1
- Fifty-five read-aloud books (1 copy of each title)
- Student booklets (4 booklets, 1 per student)
- Student desk maps (one per student)
The primary modes of student engagement in Level 3|4 are attentive listening, oral question and answer, and recitations. Most units also include a test for formal assessment.
To purchase Living History Threads, Level 3|4, use the buttons below to navigate to the shopping pages. You will need one copy of each item from the “Teacher Materials” page, and one copy per student for the items from the “Student Materials” page.
For schools that purchased Living History Threads, Level 3|4 prior to 2022, we recommend replacing the “China” unit with these materials to avoid redundancy if you are using or plan to use Living History Weavings, Level 5|6.
I loved seeing elementary students excited about the heroes of the faith, and how the curriculum put our church history in a way they could understand.

“All my students vote Living History as their favorite class – thanks to the Living History Threads curriculum. They love the stories! The history facts seem to be riveted in their minds better with this style of curriculum.
