CoreU.S. History
U.S. History traces the nation's history from the pre-colonial period to the present. Students learn about the NativeAmerican, European, and African people who lived in America before it became the United States. They examine the beliefsand philosophies that informed the American Revolution and the subsequent formation of the government and politicalsystem. Students investigate the economic, cultural, and social motives for the nation's expansion, as well as the conflictingnotions of liberty that eventually resulted in civil war. The course describes the emergence of the United States as anindustrial nation and then focuses on its role in modern world affairs.
Moving into the 20th and 21st centuries, students probe the economic and diplomatic interactions between the UnitedStates and other world players while investigating how the world wars, the Cold War, and the “information revolution”affected the lives of ordinary Americans. Woven through this chronological sequence is a strong focus on the changingconditions of women, African Americans, and other minority groups.
The course emphasizes the development of historical analysis skills such as comparing and contrasting, differentiatingbetween facts and interpretations, considering multiple perspectives, and analyzing cause-and-effect relationships. Theseskills are applied to text interpretation and in written assignments that guide learners step-by-step through problem-solvingactivities.
This course is built to state standards and informed by the National Council for History Education, the National Center forHistory in the Schools, and the National Council for Social Studies.
