This class is based on the New York State syllabus for United States History and Government. Students will study US history from Colonial America to the present combined with an analysis of the Constitution and Constitutional issues and the role of the US in the world.
This is the John Green's Crash Course series playlist for US History. He packs in a lot of facts, adding lots of humor, but can be a fast talker. This is a great supplement to class, but we won't be watching all of them, so feel free to watch the ones we miss!
This is the Hip Hughes History playlist for US History. Just like above, we watch some of his segments in class, but can't get to all of them. Consider subscribing to his YouTube channel. You get a ton of relevant videos to issues today as well as interesting segments about our past. Like John Green, he is humorous and informative.
