In this ongoing course we will heighten our knowledge of the United States from the Civil War/Reconstruction era to Present Day. We will discuss events in depth that normally are only spent a few minutes on in the traditional classroom! These in depth analysis of important events allows for a deeper interpretation of the United States and its history! Topics we will discuss in this course: How the Civil War Ended Reconstruction Emancipation Proclamation Admitting New States Expansion into Latin American Countries World War I Roaring Twenties Rise and Fall of the Stock Market Great Depression World War II Civil Rights Movement Cuban Missile Crisis and Bay of Pigs And so many more topics! The material will be taught through PowerPoint presentations, shorts videos, collaborative conversations and closed readings. I love for my students to learn not only from myself but through the help of their fellow classmates. This is my goal to have collaborative conversations that make each student question, answer and gauge their own level of knowledge about the topic.
Learning Goals
Students will learn the overall impact of each event in United States history that ultimately impacted the country even to date.

Teacher expertise and credentials
My degree is in History with an emphasis in American History. While studying in my undergrad I specifically took a course based on all eras of American History. I have successfully taught my own students in the physical classroom for the past two years over topics that will be discussed in this course!
My minor in my degree is also in Social Sciences. I have taken multiple courses in psychology, sociology and the study of people. This allows me to gauge when a student may need. If your student may need additional emotional, mental or physical assistance I am certified by my state to do so with my Special Education licensure. Reviews
