The games, word searches and activities that go with each profile really help to bring understanding to the student as well as make learning about the characters fun. Anything that I can put my hands on to help my child get a better picture of a person from history or an era is an excellent tool, and Profiles from History is just that.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"testimonial-who\"\u003e—Christy Slattman\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"testimonial-text\"\u003e\"My daughters are always excited when it is the day to add a section from Profiles from History to our Paths of Exploration curriculum. The selections in the book help us meet historical figures on a personal a level. We learn new facts about them and experience life through their eyes in their time period. Using the timeline helps us see things as a whole – how what they accomplished fits into history and what else was going on around them.

Each biography in Mrs. Wiggers' books span no more than three pages, so we use the books as an introduction to a historical character and time period.

Along with supplemental resources, we reinforce comprehension with the discussion questions, overview maps, timeline information, and other activities at the end of each biography on different days.
