History of the America's text choice?

jonesk3 — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 22:50:57 -0600

My A.P has told me that I need to chose a textbook very soon. Our school is going to begin the I.B program next year, but our I.B visit in December. I am going to teach History of the America's to juniors. Another colleague of mine will be teaching the 20th century to our seniors. Can anyone recommend a good textbook that I can use just for the History of the America's section. Also any really good supplemental texts that students should read outside of class on maybe the Latin America or Canadian part as those are my weaknesses.-Thanks, Ken.

I am at a new school and new to the IB. We are looking at changing some of our A1 School Choice selections. We currently have and desire to keep Heat and Dust; O Pioneers!; and Things Fall Apart. We are looking for a third book that fits these thematically and would prefer to have a work of non-fiction instead of another novel. Does anyone have any suggestions?

My son is an IB Diploma student at Oulun Lyseo lukio in Finland. For his Group 1 Language A1 he plans to offer his mother language, Bengali. However, we have not yet been able to find out what is the curriculum for Bengali so that he can make his choices and we can send him the required books.

Can anyone help? Anyone in Bangladesh? Or Kolkata?
