History and Social Sciences 7

The Integrated Global Studies course is the study of events, relationships, and interactions between societies in the Eastern and Western Hemispheres through the use of inquiry. United States history will be incorporated into topics where it intersects with global issues or themes. Students will examine primary and secondary sources, including written and oral histories, images, and artifacts. In addition, historical thinking skills and processes, including chronological reasoning, identifying and evaluating multiple perspectives, using and understanding sources, and analyzing cause and effect relationships will be integrated throughout the year.
