Students are challenged to analyze primary and secondary sources through quotations, activities, and links to literature. Through an explanation of historians’ different viewpoints, students are challenged to think for themselves while interacting with historical documents.
This course links to literature, Bible, and ethics and provides opportunities to practice math skills that relate to history through hands-on activities that reach across subject areas.
All components of this course have clearly defined objectives, and assessments systematically evaluate those objectives to check student understanding.
Through the student activities book and assessment packet, as well as through writing prompts, review games, and chapter review questions, students have multiple opportunities to apply their learning in practical and varied ways.
