Unit Assignments

 

Ciao! Welcome to 8th grade social studies!  In eighth grade American history classes we explore a variety of topics using different types of activities, learning strategies and experiences.  Students spend a lot of time examining primary documents and “becoming” historians to determine what happened, looking at historical events from different points of view.
