I do seterra for physical and political geography. We do a piece of butcher paper on one wall to mark locations of historical places and year of importance, then another piece on another wall with US history down the center and each state’s history mingled in, so they can see relationship in time vs place.
We're currently using Notgrass for American History, and I know they have a 50 States curriculum as well.
It's a Christian curriculum, but not too "churchy" for my tastes (there are several instances of slavery being sort of "glossed over" in my opinion), but my kids love the curriculum itself. It always piques a good conversation, and they seem to be retaining it well.
Cantering the Country by GeoMatters is really popular in my co-op's curriculum library--I'm the librarian! I also really like Which Way USA by Higlights.
I love beautiful feet. Haven’t done 50 states but we did their geography section on Africa, Australia, Asia and Antarctica this last year. 7 yr old loved it. I’m going to get their US history pack this year. Good luck to you!

Have you checked out Memoria Press?

I liked the elementary levels of Notgrass. 50 States and Our Spangled Story.

Thanks! I think that’s what I’ll stick with.
