Description

Title of Class: US History


Grades: 4th, 5th, and 6th Grade


Course Description:
Welcome to U.S. History: Exploration through the Birth of a Nation. I look forward
to fostering a love for history this year! America’s story is about people who
struggled, bled, cried, laughed, danced, sang, prayed, and dreamed of a brighter
future. Some are famous, but most are not. The seasick woman aboard the

Mayflower, the child separated from his parents forever at the slave auction, the
Native Americans who showed Europeans how to plant corn, and the men who
dumped tea into a dark Boston Harbor on a cold December night. Students will
learn through hands-on activities like escape rooms and log cabin building. The
history of our country is remarkable and I can't wait to share it with your students!
Students are required to do one Passion Project at the end of the 2nd semester.
This is where the beauty of homeschooling should be felt. The project will
culminate in a few peer teaching days – which are always a huge hit! The
students will prepare a 3-minute presentation and hone in on their public
speaking skills. More info to come during the second semester!


Cost Per Semester: $285
