Hello and welcome to U.S. History 8. Let me start off by letting you know that I am very excited about the coming year and can’t wait to get to know all of you. Let me give you an overview of what we’ll be covering in class this year. In U.S. History 8 we will be exploring the foundations of our great nation. From the early peoples who crossed the land bridge from Asia to Alaska, to the founding fathers who’s courage and wisdom forged the Documents that guarantee our freedom. We will delve into our countries Civil War where brother fought against brother and our nation was nearly torn in two. And finally we will set out across the western plains and the events that brought the 19th century to a close.
During our journey it is my wish that none gets left behind. It is my goal that everyone entering my classroom in the fall, will leave in the spring with a greater appreciation and understanding of our great nation and our heritage as a people. To ensure none gets lost, all of my class notes, power-points, and assignments can be found on this website under the U.S. History 8 tab. This will allow you access at any time to the assignments needed for class.
I am here to assist both students and parents in any way I can. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns you my have. I look forward to a fantastic year!
