In this class we will take a look at the history of each state: Who settled it? Who were the Indigenous groups that live/d there? What European and American settlers moved there and why? When and how did it join the Union? What wars or conflicts were fought in that state? What important events happened there and who came from there? What is it most known for today? What makes it unique? 

We will be working on an ongoing National map, biographies of U.S. Presidents, sampling different local cuisine, and completing virtual tours of different landmarks. 

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 for a layout of the lessons included in this course.
