         This US History course is taught in the perspective, "History is another person's life story."  We will be studying  "Reconstruction: Post Civil War,  Immigration, Industrialism, Imperialism and the Spanish American War."     As America grows into a World Power we will experience the "World Wars, Great Depression, Cold War, Civil Rights, Vietnam" and  "The World as we know it."    Students will be asked to research and interview for a stronger depth of understanding.         The classroom welcomes any experiences, stories or information you might share. Students will create a final project explaining how history has affected the lives of their families/and or friends; and, therefore their own lives.  Please contact me if you think you may enrich our learning process.
