US Grade 5 - 8
To understand History we need to understand the overall story of it and how things fit together. In this class, learners will learn about the overall story of American History by looking at the smaller stories that are a part of it. This class covers most of the 1910s up until the Stock Market Crash of 1929 and the start of the Great Depression. These will be given from a variety of perspectives and viewpoints. Each week there will be a lecture about the events, and if time allows there will be some discussion about the events and their importance. Each week there will be an assigned essay question related to what was discussed in class, learners should submit a 100 word answer to the teacher before the following week's class. There will also be a 5 question multiple choice quiz given each week. At the end of the class there will be an optional 50 question multiple choice final exam
Learning Goals
Learners will learn about 1912 to 1929 in US history, be able to discuss it, and answer essay questions related to it. As well as answer multiple choice quiz questions about it.Syllabus

Teacher expertise and credentials
I love history and learning about how people lived during different times. I like to do research into how people lived and trying things out for myself. I believe the best way to learn about something is to try and experience it first hand and through this class we will try to experience this as best we can. I have traveled extensively and interacted with many cultures firsthand, so I have a broad first hand experience and understanding of different cultures and their effect and perspective on the world. I teach history classes on Outschool in a variety of formats and subjects, including many that include sensitive topics.Reviews
