The American Girls Class

Welcome everyone!! I hope you come to this class with an open mind and an loving heart for History. In this class we will be studing the lives of 6 girls that predate back to the late 1700's to the middle 1900's and what part of history they played in. We will see how they lived, how they made things, and how they lived day to day. We will learn how they went to school and what was taught. We will see how they made things and did so without all the help we have. Most of all, we will see how lucky we truly are to have what we have now in comparison to what they had then. We will compare the pro's and con's for the nice things we have and the not so nice things we have. I hope you enjoy this class and take with you some knowledge of how History is always a part of us. Have fun and remember....READ, READ, and READ!!!!
