A One Year Culture & History-Based Program Designed for 5th-8th Grades



Delve into our American culture, from the struggle of the Civil War, and how it changed our national identity, to the toppling of the twin towers on September 11th, and how this has changed today’s world. Along the way, you’ll discover the westward-moving, invention-creating, city-building, store-establishing, business-making, future-loving, fad-introducing American people that created a new American culture.

As you journey along, you’ll enjoy the many learning experiences that will help your student get to know our American culture. They’ll conduct secret missions, help with the war effort, be a robber baron for a day, sing cowboy songs, live the pioneer life, design a city tenement, host a 50’s night, and create their own newfangled fad!

Not only will your student love the hands-on activities we’ve scheduled for you, they’ll also create their own American culture magazine for their “Make-Your-Own” pages this year. They’ll create articles and headlines on the key events and cultural changes going on around America. Students will also get to study later American painters, and discover the lives of the presidents who served America

Best of all, the books in this program are just outstanding! One book takes you into the inner workings of the financial world during the Great Depression, while another transports you to Lincoln’s side as he uses the latest Civil War-era technology. Still another gains you inside access to World War II spying, and another title puts you in Dallas on the day President Kennedy was shot. You’ll want to venture inside these books!
