Abstract:

Early settlers: the era of colonization: Students witness colonial life in a new land as Annabel Lee Sloan, with the help of her diary, reminisces about the wonderful homecomings she had with her father when he would return from his many travels and reveal to her the fascinating tales of a new and ever-growing nation.

Moving to America: then and now: Look around you and you will see many different people speaking different languages, eating different foods, wearing different clothes. This is America, a country of many different peoples, but where did they come from?

Pioneers: the American frontier: Students learn who the pioneers were, experience life as a pioneer, and travel along as they leave the crowded cities in the East through the frontier to a better life in the West.

How customs and heritage shape communities: Drawing from historical and community resources students will discover how people all over the world have left their mark on the land they settled.

American Indians of the Southwest: From the ancient mounds of the Hohokam to today's Navajo reservation, the Southwest is rich with American Indian heritage.

Long ago, yesterday and today: Re-creations, artifacts, photographs, and time-lines tell the stories of how our parents, grandparents, and other ancestors lived on a daily basis.

American Indians of the woodlands: Students will explore the environmental influences of the Woodland Indians and see their role in the birth of the United States.
