to explain the historical migration of people, expansion, and disintegration of
empires, and the growth of economic systems.
Research, Evidence, and Point of View
1. Students frame questions
that can be answered by historical study and research.
2. Students distinguish relevant
from irrelevant information, essential from incidental information, and verifiable
from unverifiable information in historical narratives and stories.
3. Students assess the credibility of primary and secondary sources and draw sound conclusions from them.
3. Students assess the credibility of primary and secondary sources and draw sound conclusions from them.
4. Students detect the different historical points of

were made (the questions asked, sources used, author’s perspectives).
Historical Interpretation
1. Students explain the central
issues and problems from the past, placing people and events in a matrix of time,
and place.
2. Students understand and distinguish cause, effect,

US History Framework: The eighth grade course of study begins
with an intensive review of the major ideas, issues, and events that shaped the
founding of the nation. In their study of this era, students will view American
history through the lens of a people who were trying—and are still trying—to
fulfill the promise of the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution.
Throughout their eighth grade United States history and geography course,
students will confront the themes of freedom, equality, and liberty and their
changing definitions over time. This course will also explore the geography of
place, movement, and region, starting with the Atlantic Seaboard and then
exploring American westward expansion and economic development, the Civil War
and Reconstruction, and finally, industrialization. Covering parts of three centuries, the
historical content outlined in this chapter is both substantial and
substantive, which poses a significant challenge for teachers, with limited
time for in-depth study. In order to address this challenge, this chapter is
organized into five large sections that incorporate relevant questions that can
help students understand how individual events and people comprise a larger
narrative explanation of our past.
As
students learn American history from the late 1700s through the end of the
nineteenth century, they will develop reading, writing, speaking, and listening
skills that will enhance their understanding of the content. As in earlier
grades, students should be taught that history is an investigative discipline,
one that is continually reshaped based on primary-source research and on new
perspectives that can be uncovered. Students should be encouraged to read
multiple primary and secondary documents; to understand multiple perspectives;
to learn about how some things change over time and others tend not to; and
they should appreciate that each historical era has its own context and it is
up to the student of history to make sense of the past on these terms and by
asking questions about it.

The Six Pillars of
Character®
CHARACTER COUNTS!
(https://charactercounts.org) (https://charactercounts.org/program-overview/)
The Six Pillars of
Character® are the core ethical values of CHARACTER COUNTS!® articulated in the
Aspen Declaration (http://charactercounts.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Website-The-Aspen-Declaration-Final2.26.2019.pdf),
these values were indented by a nonpartisan, nonsectarian (secular) group of
youth development experts in 1992 as “core ethical values that transcend
cultural, religious and socio-economic differences”.
The Six Pillars of
Character® are: Trustworthiness, Respect, Responsibility, Fairness, Caring and Citizenship.
CHARACTER COUNTS!® recommends always using these pillars in this special order
and using the acronym “T.R.R.F.C.C.” (Terric) to help in this endeavor.
Each student will create
their own tower of Character and explore each Pillar in what it means and how
it relates to them.
Each Pillar is
consistently identified with a color:
Trustworthiness
– Blue,
Respect –
Gold/Yellow,
Responsibility
– Green,
Fairness –
Orange,
Caring – Red,
Citizenship –
Purple.
