Description

Does APUSH instruction get you down? At Mano Koa Enterprises, we say teaching APUSH is "A'ole Pilikia" (No Problem in Hawaiian). Say goodbye to straight lecturing by giving your students an entire curriculum of hands-on and completely interactive lessons which build content knowledge and skills.

In this award winning (2021 Gilder Lehrman Oregon History Teacher of the Year) product, every AP US History lesson is designed with the following three cutting edge pedagogical principles:

Storifying The Past: Designing narratives with multiple perspectives to which students can take agency and contribute to building classroom community.
Gamifying The Past: Students are given multiple opportunities to reason out variables from the past through scavenger hunt contests, review games, and tabletop strategy games in which historical events and factors become levels and variables for students to reason out.

Socializing Knowledge: Students have constant opportunities to build connections with content and skills.

In this Period 1 unit, take your students on an odyssey through space and time starting from the past and ending in the distant future courtesy of your imagination. This curriculum contains materials for the following lessons.

Period 1.1: SAQ Training and the Age of Discovery/Conquest
Period 1.2: Pre-Columbian Civilizations
Period 1.3: European Colonization Methods
Period 1.4: MCQ Training and British Colonization Methods

Every one of the lessons contains a series of Express Notes which are calibrated to align with the following six textbooks:

Newman’s AMSCO: United States History: Preparing for the Advanced Placement Examination
Kennedy, American Pageant
Henretta, America’s History
Brinkley, American History: A Survey
Berkin, Making America: A History of the United States
Fraser, By the People
