Welcome to United States History! United States History and the Constitution is a survey course that focuses on the story of the American people from the period of colonial settlement to the present day. We will spend this semester discussing, organizing, and researching the development, progression, and ascension of the United States as a global superpower. As a class we will examine various historical perspectives and precedents, not just names and dates. We will emphasize broad thematic concepts, and make abstract and concrete connections between various historical events that contributed to the present development of the United States. This website exists for you, the students and parents. The goal is to provide you with access to everything that you may need throughout the semester. US History is a demanding course and this site is designed to make the resources you need easier to access. Preparation and hard work lead to success. |
