Social Studies/ History at Chancellor Academy
In Social Studies, World Cultures, Global Studies, and World History students examine at varying levels their own culture and history and compare and contrast it with the culture and history of other peoples and nations with hands on activities introducing indigenous products, art, music, and foods. Map reading, and geography skills are stressed. World History expands on Social Studies, World Culture, and Global Studies by examining the detailed history of specific nations and areas of the world. In U.S. History I and II, students develop an awareness, understanding and appreciation of the freedom and traditions and the rights and responsibilities of an American. A variety of instructional methods are used, such as: reading, written assignments, class discussions, film/documentaries, and problem solving exercises for students to relate to historical facts and tie them into the experiences of students today. |
