What is this class about?
11th grade history is all about American history and its place in the world! From our humble beginnings as rebels who wanted to govern themselves as they saw fit, to now the powerhouse that is now a major world power, this is the story of how America came to be. We will be covering everything from the first landing and discovery of the americas, the settlement of the new world, the revolution, the civil war, both world wars, the depression, the industrial revolution, all the way into the twenty first century! We will be learning about events, people, things, ideas, politics, and how they all relate to each other and why it matters now! So lets buckle up for an adventure in time by learning about our past!
