** Learning American history provides context for understanding the development of the country's political institutions, including the Constitution, Bill of Rights, and other laws that govern American society. ** Civics focuses on the roles and responsibilities of citizens within the political system, such as voting, participating in government, and protecting individual rights. There are many arguments that certain amendments, political party views, and terminology conjure. Controversy will not be discussed in this class. Students will be referred to the adults in their homes if they ask questions that might open up a "hot" topic. My goal is to create a learning environment that is inclusive and respectful of all perspectives, allowing students to develop their critical thinking and analytical skills.
