We hit the ground running our first week back, with a review of the US Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and the founding fathers of our country.

This week we will begin our drive westward across the county, the period known as Westward Expansion!  This is the period from 1803-1890 and we will be discussing these events and more:

The Louisiana Purchase

Lewis and Clark

The Oregon Trail

Texas becoming a state

and the California gold rush

Let’s go!!

Our quote of the week is:

Goodness is about character-integrity, honesty, kindness, generosity, moral courage, and the like.  More than anything, it is about how we treat other people.
