Welcome to History! In this sixth grade level course, students will walk through world history starting with an overview of world geography, both past and present. We will examine the different continents and oceans. We will examine some of the theories of human origins and human migrations. Using an array of source materials, students will explore, analyze and document different African, Asian, and Middle Eastern people and cultures throughout history. They will learn about the important historical events and diverse actors who helped shape history. This class will be taught through recorded lectures and may also include supplemental videos (Youtube), readings, worksheets, and activities (recipes, movies, dioramas, experiments, etc.). Please see the syllabus below to see a layout of the lessons included in this course. This is Part 1 of a full year curriculum. It is not required to take Parts 2-4. Parts 1 and 2 are also offered as a 20 week class if you would prefer a longer class. Please message me if you have any questions. This class is presented in an asynchronous format. If you are taking this class through the Class Subscriptions, there will be no communication between learner and myself. If you are taking this class through the Self-Paced format, you will have 1 year to complete the lessons. If you choose to submit homework or communicate (questions on the classroom page), I will respond within 24 hours (with Sundays off).
