Class Experience

US Grade 5 - 8
Welcome to History! In this sixth grade level course, students will walk through world history starting with an overview of world geography, both past and present. We will examine the different continents and oceans. We will examine some of the theories of human origins and human migrations. Using an array of source materials,  students will explore, analyze and document different South and Central American,  Asian, Middle Eastern, and Oceanic people and cultures throughout history.  They will learn about the important historical events and diverse actors who helped shape history. 

This is Part 2 of a full year curriculum. It is not required to take both Part 1 and 2 or to take Part 1 first. Please message me if you have any questions. 

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. If you choose to submit homework or communicate (questions on the classroom page), I will respond within 24 hours (excluding Sundays).
