What does Real Knowledge look like?
Our mission at Knowable World is to be the best place for parents to go to help their child make sense of the world we live in.
To us, student success means measurable, demonstrable mastery of history!
That’s not an exaggeration. Mastery.
Of course, true mastery takes time. Knowable World offers Elementary and Jr/Sr High classes, and students will often study the same material over three passes, and they learn more each time. But you don’t have to wait to see amazing results. Even our elementary students can regale you with their knowledge. They often do at the dinner table, in conversations with grandparents and family friends. Take a look!
Learn European History 1.0 from Willow!
Willow is one of our bright and enthusiastic elementary students.
Let her walk you through what we call “European History 1.0”–the most useful, basic outline of European history, which sets the “big picture” for further learning…
For a look at “European History 2.0,” just scroll down, and one of Willow’s peers, Ragnar, will show you how we build on this foundation!
Learn Russian History from Elowen!
In the Knowable World program, one year of the program rotation is dedicated to “Europe, Russia, and the World We Live In.”
Therefore, once you have basic outline of European history, the next logical subject to study is Russia. Russia is–and is not–a European country. The history of Europe and Russia are certainly interconnected.
Here’s Elowen to show you how…
European History 2.0 with Ragnar!
As promised, here’s a second pass through European history, with Ragnar, one of our elementary students as a guide.
Here we dive deeper into the ways that the Europe of nations evolved over time, and how it became the European Union of today. Enjoy!
Your Child can be Next!
The three-year program rotation of the Knowable World programs turns to America and the World We Live In for the 2026-27 school year.
Classes begin August 17, so reach out to [email protected] for more information right away!
