** New to Outschool? Use code MelanieWia2020 to save $20! ** Welcome to your American History Course Part 1! In this twelve-week course, students will learn about some of the important topics of American History from pre-European contact to the Civil War. For a detailed list of topics that will be covered in this course please view a week-by-week breakdown in the Syllabus. In these classes, students will view a slideshow presentation with pictures, key information, videos, and discussion questions to help guide our time together. My goal as a history teacher is to have your child remember the experiences and stories of those who lived during those times and to gain an empathetic understanding of the challenges and injustice circumstances that shaped American society. Using the historical thinking concepts (continuity and change, historical significance, cause and consequence, historical perspective, and ethical dimensions), students will gain an understanding of the difficult parts of American history such as the mistreatment towards the indigenous people and African Americans who were forced into slavery. It is important for students to understand the lasting impacts that history has on our present world. We will also examine the advancements that American society made in terms of independence, technology, and governmental systems. In addition to our weekly classes together, students will also be given a weekly task to complete to help solidify their understanding of particular historical topics. Please see the 'Homework' tab below for more information. Please contact me if you have any questions regarding the course, I am happy to help. Accommodations can be made to help your learner be successful in the course.

Orientación para padres
This course will at times deal with sensitive matters such as wars, colonization and the wrongful treatment of Indigenous peoples, slavery, and other material that is relevant to American history. To help students understand these difficult topics, I will be using first-hand accounts when possible to help tell the stories of those impacted by these events.
Lista de útiles escolares
Students are encouraged to take notes if that helps their learning. Worksheets to help students follow along with the lessons will also be provided prior to each class which students can either print or have open on another device.
