Story of Canada by Brown Schedule

I was asked to share my schedule for using Story of Canada by George Brown with Ambleside Online.

This schedule was figured out by matching the span of years covered by the world history for each year, but adjusting if necessary to complete a chapter.  

I then looked at the dates covered in each chapter of the world history book, compared to the dates covered in each chapter of Story of Canada, and used that to determine which chapters to read each term, and then spread the sections out over the term fairly evenly, while still trying to match the dates fairly well.  Naturally the dates do not always match exactly, but it provides a fairly close match over-all
