FROM THE TEACHER

Welcome to the world of Ancient History! I am so excited to take this journey with you. In this course, we will examine a number of intriguing concepts including: the differences between secular and Christian explanations of human origin, the patterns of civilization development (rise, golden age, decline), and positive and negative contributions of civilizations to society and the world. Through lessons and activities, you will gain a deeper understanding of historical events and their impact on how we live today. Come along for the ride!
