History 9: Changing Earth

The Earth has changed drastically over the course of 4.5 billion years. Humans have been on Earth for a small portion of its history (six million). Throughout this course, students will examine the complex relationship between humans and nature. They will explore how Earth has changed humans and how humans have changed the Earth. In each of the six units, the class will focus on a singular theme in which all of humanity has developed, expanded upon, and in some cases- failed. Within each unit, the class will make connections from ancient history to the present. At the end of the year, students will engage in a case study where each of the units will feed into the case study. This course is in tandem with the 9th-grade science and English courses.
