8th Grade American History

Students will begin our study of early attempts to colonize America.  Students will be able to identify similar and different characteristics of the early colonies (goals, location, demographics, success, failures, etc) with 95% accuracy. Students will compare and contrast the early colonies, including an brief evaluation of successes and failures.  Students will then utilize their understanding of the early American colonies to shape their predictions about the direction of America and the psychology of America.
