We will be traveling through time....beginning with where it all began - The Stone Age - and journeying through many amazing places.  On our journey, we will be stopping in the ancient cities of Sumer (in the Fertile Crescent), Egypt, India, China, Greece, Rome, and we will be learning many of their achievements, failures, and contributions to the world.  We will be exploring the many religions, cultures and traditions of these amazing places, and how technology played a part in the evolution of the ancient world.

We will be continuing our journey where our 6th grade curriculum ends....with the exploration that will lead to the founding of America.  We will be learning about the rivalry between countries to explore and conquer the land that lies west of the Atlantic Ocean.  We will learn about the first settlements and colonies, how our government was formed, what it takes to be a citizen of this great country, The American Revolution and the Civil War, and all of the trials and tribulations in-between.
