Review: Heroes of History – Ronald Reagan by YWAM Publishing | A Homeschool Mom
At the end of the study guide is an exhaustive list of books and resources for further study, answers to chapter questions, and social studies reproducible pages. Our Unit Study Guide covered a multitude of learning areas: Our reading of Ronald Reagan: Destiny at His Side was a breeze. The chapters were short, fun, and easy to follow.
The book covered the life of President Reagan from his youth to his death, and the impact his life made on the world. Our read was enjoyable and educational.

The guide is incredibly comprehensive with many activities and options to explore. From a teaching perspective, I appreciated the helpful tips on how to make the most of this curriculum and the chapter questions. I especially liked the biography time periods, curriculum timeline, and character qualities chart; these visuals make it easier to plan future unit studies. Having a display corner was especially appealing.

Listening to old radio programs is a family pastime, so it was fun to find this activity already listed in the study guide. We had the opportunity to can food, create maps, construct journals, and so much more. While our first reading of Ronald Reagan: Destiny at His Side went quickly, with a select amount of activity chosen, I would like to revisit this sometime in the coming year and progress through the unit study with greater depth.
It has indeed been a while since our family has had the pleasure of exploring a unit study. YWAM and Heroes of History have been a fun adventure, and reminded us of the benefits of this learning method. There is so much goodness to explore!

He was also a man of integrity. He grew up in a time where he was friends with black children and could not imagine discrimination that was going on in the Southern states. Ronald grew up and supported the Democratic party; however, his values were those of what became the Republican party. He often said that he did not desert the Democratic party, that it deserted him.
