World History for kids

We live in Bridgeport, a poorer, though not the poorest, neighborhood in the south side of Chicago. With the lower income, come schools with less potential, individual attention, and fewer talented teachers. I have been struggling with the curriculum since I first began participating in raising Vizhon (three years ago). At first, I thought that math practice and reading assignments at home would do the trick. But the kiddo is in sixth grade and the paucity of education she is receiving is devastating. So, the poor child is faced with math, grammar, science, geography, world history and US history lessons at home. It's hard, but doable.
