“In eighth grade students learn United States History from 1790 through the Reconstruction Era. Students investigate the evolution of the political system as expressed in the Constitution. They also explore the importance of civic participation in the political process. Students analyze how America became a diverse society as a result of immigration and the consequences of cultural interactions. Additionally, students use geographic tools to examine issues associated with settlement patterns and regional growth. They examine interdependence, trade, and economic growth during this period and how changes in technology affected production and consumption. Students also study theemerging foreign policy, industrialization, the western movement, and the policies and people responsible for the abolition of slavery. They use historical thinking skills to study the events, places, and people within the historical period of 1790 through the Reconstruction Era. Ultimately, students in Social Studies classes engage in a series of units of study that shape their ideas through a continuum of voice to build school and community leaders. The continuum allows students to use voice as expression, consultation, participation, activism and leadership.”
