Some of the most fascinating stories of all time come from actual events that are beyond what the imagination can concoct. The people and events that make up the past have incredible and often untold stories. It is my goal to teach students in this class the details that are often overlooked starting from the Revolutionary War and continuing to The Cold War. The format for instruction includes videos, slide presentations, and often times relevant music to the topic being discussed. It is my goal to inspire curiosity and interest in each student. I aim for students to leave class each week excited to tell others what they have learned and motivated to learn more. Objectivity is my highest priority when teaching history. Each lesson will provide information from multiple perspectives. This class is not intended to be an opinion course and will focus only on facts. This course is a self-paced version of my History Explorers class which has been running for approximately 3 years now.

Orientación para padres
Parents should be advised that much of the material in this class will focus on wars throughout history, however, I do not intend on discussing any graphic details of violent elements. Additionally, sensitive language and social issues may be addressed as part of historic events. Age appropriateness is at the forefront of all of my lesson planning. This class will follow the curriculum recommendations of the state of Colorado for 5th grade students.
