WHAT STUDENTS LEARN

All episodes and lessons teach through the power of story to make history relevant and engaging for students. In the first episode students learn how big business began to dominate the US economy after the Civil War through the story of John D. Rockefeller's Standard Oil Company and the effects this had on Americans. In the second lesson students learn how workers were impacted by industrialization and their efforts to unionize with the story of the Haymarket Square Riot. Then students learn about urbanization and the lives of the New Immigrants- who they were, why they came, and how they lived. In the last lesson, students discover the political corruption that marked the Gilded Age through the story of Boss Tweed and Tammany Hall and how Thomas Nast's cartoons took them down!

***The lessons cover state-standards while making sure the content is still rich and interesting.
