RISING 8^TH GRADERS

Foundations of the Modern World - This is a specially designed Humanities elective course for rising 9th and 10th graders. In Foundations of the Modern World, students will begin by learning about the religious, political, economic and societal structures of classical civilizations. In the first two weeks, students will focus on how each civilization struggled to maintain their power and influence in a changing world and compare these challenges to the current events. In the final week, students will deepen their understanding of these civilizations by using primary sources to compare cultures, religions, social hierarchies and political systems of each civilization. Engaging activities and projects will bring history to life while students improve their historical skills! 1/2 Credit Humanistic Studies

Public Speaking - Are you terrified of an entire semester of public speaking? Want to free up a track for next year? We will learn how to write and deliver well written speeches on a variety of topics, take field trips, and learn how to feel confident speaking in front of people!
