FCPS Notes: The study of United States history begins with an examination of the first people of North America some 30,000 years ago. It is important to discuss briefly the extensive and complex settlement in what Europeans called the New World. Students might want to embark on this survey through an examination of the role that geography played in the development of Native American cultures. Students should note the extraordinary linguistic and cultural diversity of Native American societies in the Americas. After examining Native-American life and culture, students should study the epic events of the late fifteenth century when three worlds met: when Europeans, the inhabitants of North and South America, and the peoples of Africa entered upon an historic encounter that was to shape much of modern history in over half the world. The ensuing exchange of ideas, technology, food, and disease had enormous implications for the world. The study of the colonial era in United States history is essential for students because the foundations for many of the most crucial developments were established during those years. Without an understanding of the seed time of the American nation it is almost impossible for students to understand such important developments as the formation of political institutions and values, the development of economic systems, the multi-ethnic and culturally diverse population of the United States, and the history of slavery and the enduring problems of race that were its legacy.
4 A brief survey should be made of the English, French, Dutch, Portuguese, and Spanish colonization. Major emphasis should be placed on the English colonies where new political values and institutions were shaped. The sheer scope of our nation s colonial history requires that students have a clear focus for instruction one that may be found using any of the three following themes to concentrate on continuity in the period. One way to embark upon a study of the colonial period is to carry forward the theme of the coming together of varied peoples and their cultural, ethnic, and religious diversity. An analysis of the social, cultural, and economic similarities and differences among the New England, Middle-Atlantic, and Southern colonies will illustrate the diverse character of settlements that characterized early America. Essential Understanding: Early European exploration and colonization resulted in the redistribution of the world s population as millions of people from Europe and Africa voluntarily and involuntarily moved to the New World. Exploration and colonization initiated worldwide commercial expansion as agricultural products were exchanged between the Americas and Europe. In time, colonization led to ideas of representative government and religious toleration that over several centuries would inspire similar transformations in other parts of the world.

FCPS Notes: In Standard 2, After examining Native-American life and culture, students studied the epic events of the late fifteenth century when three worlds met: when Europeans, the inhabitants of North and South America, and the peoples of Africa entered upon an historic encounter that was to shape much of modern history in over half the world. In Standard 3, the focus for studying the colonial period is an examination of the economic development of the colonies. Colonial economic development is important because the abundance of land, periodic labor shortages, the absence of craft guilds, and the Protestant work ethic created wider opportunities for upward mobility. Many colonists nurtured a competitive, entrepreneurial ethos, and a devotion to private property that grew to become part of the American value system. In Standard 4, students will look at the ideas, events and issues that developed in these English North American colonies during the American Revolution Era. Essential Understanding: Economic institutions in the colonies developed in ways that were either typically European or were distinctively American, as climate, soil conditions, and other natural resources shaped regional economic development. The African slave trade and the development of a slave labor system in many of the colonies resulted from plantation economies and labor shortages.

Standard 4 focuses on the Revolutionary period. The American Revolution is of single importance to the study of United States history for the light it sheds for students on a major theme in history: the long struggle for liberty, equality, justice, and dignity. The American Revolution severed the colonial relationship with England and created the United States of America. The revolutionary generation laid the institutional foundations for the system of government under which the United States is governed. The Revolution, inspired by the ideas concerning natural rights and political authority that were transatlantic in nature, affected people and governments over a large part of the globe in what has been called the age of democratic revolution. A study of the American Revolution has a natural starting point in the Seven Years War. This contest for empire removed France from North America, reducing the colonists need for England s protection. The war prepared a group of political and military leaders to play roles on a larger stage and gave the colonists a sense of confidence in themselves. England s decision to maintain troops in the colonies after the war and to make colonists bear part of the cost of the war began to drive a wedge between England and her North American colonies. In studying the decade preceding the American Revolution students should be able to trace the political and constitutional rights invoked by those colonists who debated and protested English policies. Students should discern the connection between revolutionary ideals and the economic interests of different groups such as Virginia tobacco planters, New England merchants, and urban artisans. Some of the drama of the period can be brought to life by exploring the character, thought, and political theatre of the various leaders and polemists such as John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, Thomas Paine, Patrick Henry, and Samuel Adams. The Revolutionary Era lends itself to developing a respect for the power of ideas in history, how they originate, how they are shaped over time, and how they are expressed at particular moments of crisis to promote and channel the forces of change. Standard 5 looks at how the first efforts at nation-building were revised on the basis of experience. The Founders developed a new vision of how a diverse society might better work together as a nation, both politically and economically. Essential Understanding: New political ideas about the relationship between people and their government helped to justify the Declaration of Independence. The revolutionary generation formulated the political philosophy and laid the institutional foundations for the system of government under which we live. The American Revolution was inspired by ideas concerning natural rights and political authority, and its successful completion affected people and governments throughout the world for many generations. The ideas of the Enlightenment and the perceived unfairness of British policies provoked debate and resistance by the American colonists. The American rebels won their independence because the British government grew tired of the struggle soon after the French agreed to help the Americans.

All original power resides in the people, and they consent to enter into a social contract among themselves to form a government to protect their rights. In return, the people promise to obey the laws and rules established by their government, establishing a system of ordered liberty. Government s powers are limited to those the people have consented to give to it. Whenever government becomes a threat to the people s natural rights, it breaks the social contract and the people have the right to alter or overthrow it. Locke s ideas about the sovereignty and rights of the people were radical and challenged the centuries-old practice throughout the world of dictatorial rule by kings, emperors, and tribal chieftains.
