Ethnic and Cultural Studies

ESSENTIAL STANDARD

MS 8.31 Analyze intersecting identities and relationships within the living histories of ethnic groups, religious groups, and other traditionally marginalized groups in the United States.

Ethnic and Cultural Study Plan

Each Wednesday we will focus on an ethnic or cultural group and its history in the United States. Each unit will take approximately 4-6 weeks. At the end of the school year, students will choose one of the units we have studied, choose a topic within that unit, and complete a self-directed inquiry study to dive deep into that topic.
