Welcome to History! This is the fourth of 4 parts to fifth grade level Social Studies. It is not required to all four parts or to take them in succession. Students will learn about how American changed during the 1800's through the middle of the 1900's. We will start with the Louisiana Purchase and walk through the causes of the Civil War, stopping to learn about how Indigenous people, African American, and women were treated during this time. We will explore what happened during the Reconstruction era and how it shaped the next 100 years of American society. We will walk through the Gilded Age, the Roaring Twenties, the Great Depression, and both World Wars. Students will learn about how changing laws, industry, and culture are going to affect American society. 

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. 


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.
