The focus of eighth grade World History is the development of culture and civilizations from pre-history through 1500. We will visit civilizations on the continents of Asia, Africa, Europe and North and South America. Our study of history will include social studies skills, geography skills, and our literacy and technology skills.

The mission of this class to to help students become life-long learners by challenging them to apply their historical knowledge to the world around them. This can be accomplished in a supportive learning environment where students are allowed to take ownership of the learning process.

Remember the Episcopal Code. It is at the heart of our life at Episcopal.
