Welcome the Early American History! During these 12 weeks we will go on an exciting journey from the beginning of our country until the end of the Civil War. We will cover the first European settlements in America, the impact on the Native Americans, the path to independence and the Revolutionary War, changes and reform movements during the 1800s, the Louisiana Purchase, Manifest Destiny, and the path to the Civil War. Please see the syllabus for details on the course material and activities for each week. We will learn through lecture, guided mapwork, worksheets, and class discussion. A fill-in-the-blank outline for students will be sent prior to each week to assist in notetaking. Maps and worksheets will also be available in the classroom for download and completion during class time.
