Abstract: Course Overview The AAT Curriculum sees the proper study of American history as the centerpiece in the making of citizens, and the cultivation of an informed and reflective love of country. Because Americans are linked together not by blood and soil, but by the principles and history we share, it is essential that these things be passed down. This is one of the central tasks of education, and we cannot afford to fail in it. Instructional Units The Instructional Units for US History are built using evidenced based practices that require students to actively engage with primary and secondary sources. Teachers are provided thematic units that trace historical content chronologically aligned with the textbook Land of Hope by Wilfred McClay (2019). Each unit has a pacing guide (recommended number of days and time needed per lesson), an instructional sequence, plus a complete set of teacher materials with sample student materials. Teacher materials include: essential vocabulary words to help at risk readers access the text, selected original sources, close analytic and critical reading guidelines for text based materials, timeline activities with images, discussion guides for selected topics in each unit, note-taking strategies, and assignments designed to develop writing historical narrative and arguments.
