Description:
Social Studies 8 enables students to investigate and understand the various perspectives one uses to interpret and view the world. Students explore how worldviews are formed and influenced by time, place, and beliefs. Through their inquiry, students investigate Japan, Renaissance Europe, and Spanish and Aztec societies. While examining the revolutionary societies of the past, students reflect upon their own worldviews and assess how the past influences the present.
