7^th Grade Social Studies

 

This year, we will be examining the history of our world.  In order to be able to understand our world today, we must learn about its past.  The ancient civilizations examined in this course have laid strong foundations for modern cultures around the world.  Throughout the year, you will be learning how the ideas, events, and people of the past have shaped our lives today.

 

We have the luxury of an interactive text for this course.  History of Our World uses interactive maps, activities, and self-tests to help you learn the material.  I encourage you to spend time looking at these throughout the year to help you investigate the material further.   These activities are located throughout the book along with the Web Code needed for each activity.
