Welcome to
Bay Oak Publishers’
Magical History ToursStudying history should be a fun
and enjoyable experience. Our goal is to present history in an engaging
format to young readers by “taking them for a ride” back into history. We
believe that by meeting people and places alive with action and
excitement, students will become involved and actually enjoy history. They
will return again and again for more fascinating stories that tell of
people and events of the past. These stories are a shared legacy available
to anyone who wants to hitch a ride on our Magical History Tours. We
strive to produce quality literature that will enlighten and support the
study of peoples and events. In each tour, young time travelers from the
twenty-first century explore a topic or event in the early history of the
mid-Atlantic region. In-depth research has been completed to determine
historical accuracy. Future tours include books that will tell the stories
of the Underground Railroad and the pirates who roamed the waters of the
Delmarva Peninsula. Our Magical History Tours are written with the young
reader in mind. Vocabulary and content are suitable for readers aged 8 to
11, and a glossary has been included. Texts may be read independently or
used as read-alouds. Resource Guides coordinated with each title present
numerous activities to assist teachers in integrating social studies
across the curriculum. Comprehension and writing activities support using
the stories for whole or small group reading instruction. Each activity
has been coordinated with the Delaware State Standards with extension
activities, field trip and cyber trip suggestions noted. Come along for
the ride on our Magical History Tours! |
