American History – Part 2 of a 4-Semester Journey Through America’s Past

How much do your students really know about how America was established?

In this engaging, multi-semester course, we slow down and take the time to build a deep, meaningful understanding of American history—from its earliest beginnings to its foundational years.

Semester 2: The 13 Colonies to the Bill of Rights

Students do not need to have completed Semester 1 to enroll in Semester 2.
Each semester stands on its own, and I provide the necessary background so every learner can jump in with confidence.

This semester explores the dramatic and world-shaping events that led to the birth of the United States. Students won’t just memorize dates—they’ll uncover stories, analyze original documents, and connect the pieces of history together.

We’ll Explore:

The formation of the original 13 colonies

The French and Indian War

The Treaty of Paris and the Seven Years’ War

The Stamp Act, Townshend Acts, and the Boston Tea Party

The Revolutionary War

The Articles of Confederation

The U.S. Constitution

The Bill of Rights

What Makes This Course Unique?

Each week, students embark on a new “voyage” through time—

Examining original historical documents

Learning about period navigation and colonial life

Discovering fascinating legends, inventions, and pivotal battles

Challenging common myths and replacing them with evidence-based truths

History becomes an adventure—not just a subject.

Requirements

Students should be able to complete copywork assignments, as this will be part of our weekly activities.

This class is a fun and enriching addition to any history curriculum—perfect for homeschool families who want their learners to connect deeply with America’s roots.
