From there we move to European exploration and early English Settlements, colonial America, The Declaration of Independence and War with England. We will then move to the Constitution, Bill of Rights, Civics, Basic Economy, Westward Expansion, Civil War, Reconstruction, Industrial Revolution, Immigration, and progressive era.  
 In addition, this class will provide songs, music and projects to help Students remember historical concepts and make history alive. The part of the brain that hears and learns music is the most resilient place for memory…Sing it…You’ll never forget it.”
