This course focuses on United States history and government. Students study
the
exploration and colonization of the American continents, the Revolutionary
War, the
writing and content of the United States Constitution, the branches of
government, the
amendment process, Westward Expansion, the Civil War, and the Gilded Age.
The
students explore ways in which God works through time and events. They also
investigate events of history that teach basic lessons of life and consider
how historical
events illustrate principles set forth in God’s Word. Furthermore, the
students are
introduced to ways in which they may actively influence government even as
eighth
graders.
