A Detective’s Guide to American History

Are you looking for an engaging full-year American history curriculum that will introduce your elementary students to key people and events of either 1800s or 1900s? Take a look at A Detective’s Guide to American History. This page is broken into three parts: 

  • A Detective’s Guide to American History – Main Units (You need one of these for a full year. You can use both over two years or together during one year for a more challenging curriculum.)
  • Optional Bonus Units to Go Deeper (These are completely optional but include resources related to topics for going deeper and adding more activities and fun.)
  • Buy Just Specific Decades (This is for the family who wants to focus on a few decades and not an entire century.)
