In 10th grade, we expect from students to increase their interest in knowing more about topics related to World History. In this course students will study the historical development of people, places, and patterns of life. Students will use skills of historical and geographical analysis to explore the early history of the world. Students will give their insight, create and make projects with the goal of learning and impacting their classmates and other students.
We will cover topics such as Foundations of Civilization, Ancient Middle East and Egypt, Ancient India and China, Ancient Greece, Ancient Rome and the Rise of Christianity, the Byzantine Empire and Islamic Civilization, African and Asian Civilizations, etc. Also, we expect that students apply what they learn to their daily lives, and compare and contrast what happened in history with today´s current events. Current events are integrated into the curriculum. Throughout the year students will be exposed to a variety of teaching practices that will appeal to a wide range of learning styles.
