Description
Newly updated with all new learning objectives, rewritten chapters, and relevant discussion questions, and covering pre-Columbian America through the Biden administration, the BJU Press United States History 6th Ed. presents high school students with a biblical worldview of American history. This new text has clear learning objectives for every chapter and assessments that are based on these objectives to gauge students’ comprehension. Throughout the colorful and engaging Student Text, students analyze primary and secondary sources through different historians’ viewpoints and writings/quotes from Patrick Henry, Andrew Jackson, Abraham Lincoln, Sitting Bull, Booker T. Washington, George W. Bush, and many others.
The consumable Student Activity Book connects the reading to effective application in students’ lives today. There are many writing prompts, games, and review questions (both in the textbook and in the Activity Book), leaving students plenty of opportunities to apply what they are learning in a variety of ways. This resource is consumable and non-reproducible. All answers to the Activity Book are found in a separate Activity Book Answer Key.
The Assessment Booklet contains the 25 chapter tests. Test questions assess comprehension and evaluate critical thinking skills through a variety of question types. The Assessment Answer Key is sold separately.
Coming alongside your student with the 2-Volume Teacher Edition equips you to participate in discussion and guide learning to meet learning objectives. Providing you with thorough and correct answers for student questions from the textbook and guidance on how to accommodate your learner, the Teacher Edition books will help you engage, instruct, apply, and assess. This course links multiple subjects into the study of American History. ELA skills are worked through the many literature suggestions found throughout. Students are even presented with math problems that relate to history and work through these problems with hands-on activities. Everything is presented through a strong biblical worldview lens. A primary objective of the BJU Press 6th Edition U.S. History is that students see God’s hand in this nation’s history. Because of the overarching changes and additions, this edition is not compatible with previous editions. ~Rebecca
