미국 / 미국 역사

This course is designed to teach American history from the earliest settlers to current times. It will be taught through lectures and slides (through NearPod) for those who are auditory and/or visual learners. It will also have interactive activities, videos, discussions, and games to help students remember the material being taught. These will be through the apps/websites NearPod and Blooket (neither need existing accounts). Each lesson will cover something new, so students may join in anytime without feeling lost. Sometimes homework will be assigned as a worksheet (through NearPod) to be completed, an informative essay to be written, or a project to be made.
