Subject Update: US History


This last week, we started a long look at events that led to the Civil War.  Our first topic was an era of reform that swept the nation in the mid-1800's.  This helped reform prisons and schools, as well as help civil rights causes for African Americans and women.

Next week, we will spend some time choosing research topics for their upcoming research papers (8th grade has presidents!).  Then, we will start looking at the differences in lifestyles between the North and the South before the Civil War.
