PBS

The classroom resources gathered here are designed to help you use this Web site, other material on the Internet, and The West videos for a study of the United States' westward expansion in the Nineteenth Century. This multidisciplinary unit of lessons addresses a variety of subject areas, including history, language arts, fine arts, and science.

These materials are designed for middle and high school students (grades 6-12), although extension suggestions may help you modify them for younger students. Each lesson plan provides objectives, standards correlations, background information, Web links, procedures, extension suggestions, and assessment recommendations. Each incorporates relevant video segments from The West, though the lessons also function as stand-alone activities.
