Course Description:
Patriot’s History materials were created by Professor Larry Schweikart—otherwise known as America's history teacher. Professor Schweikart taught American history for more than two decades and his best-selling book, A Patriot's History of the United States, is referenced in thousands of high school and college classrooms across America.
This course will teach your high school students everything they need to know about the history of the United States, from early American history and the colonial period through to the end of Reconstruction in 1877. It incorporates the "Four Pillars" of American exceptionalism— 1)a Christian, mostly Protestant religious foundation; 2)common law; 3)private property with written titles and deeds; and 4)a free market economy—and illustrates how they shaped the early United States.
In class, we will discuss the reading, learn to take notes from a text and a lecture, and watch Professor Schweikart impart his unparalleled knowledge of American history through a series of engaging and entertaining educational videos, each one covering a different era in US history. Drawing on his two decades of experience as a history teacher, Professor Schweikart brings history to life. This course is designed for 9th-12th grade students. Exceptions can be made for 8th grade students who are history-lovers and strong readers. Students must be able to interact on Google Classroom to send and receive instructions and assignments.
