The Rolling Stones: A Flashback Through HistoryMelissa Simmons
This is a project I did for my Popular Culture class in which we had to interview someone from a different generation than us and find out what type of music group they liked. This was my journey through Rafael Ruiz's memories as well as American history.

Discuss the legacies and consequences of Christopher Columbus’s ex.docxEstelaJeffery653
Discuss the legacies and consequences of Christopher Columbus’s excursion into the “New World”. How was his voyage in 1492 during the “Scientific Revolution” important to Europe and what opportunities or drawbacks did his presence represent during this period of world history? What groups were the most impacted and why?
Describe the Spanish conquest into the “New World” and in particular its impacts on Indigenous and Amerindian cultures in the Americas. How and when did Hernan Cortez Conquer Central Mexico and the Aztec Empire which was vastly larger than the men he had with him on the mission? What made this conquest unique?
What was the impact of Martin Luther and John Calvin? How did the Reformation of Protestantism Challenge the Roman Catholic Church and the hierarchy of Europe’s elite? How did this impact the decisions by early puritans to venture out and away from the Anglican Church (which was viewed as still imitating Catholicism) to North America and begin a new chapter in human civilization?
Life was harsh and volatile on early settlers who came to the early United States in the 17th Century and truthfully many perished and did not survive the early years. Discuss early life in specific regions of Colonial North America. In addition, how did Europeans and Indians view and interpret gender differences from one another? How was farming, animism, marriage, sex, children, family, divorce, and property ownership viewed?
What triggered the American Revolution from the point of view of reaching “Liberty” from an ideological perspective? What Philosophers and intellectuals did the American Forefathers call upon or cite during the period that challenged the British Empire in North America?
Illustrate the major critical events that led to the American Revolution. What was the response by both sides to violence, attacks, and threats? What were the legacies and consequences of the “Radicals” such as the “Sons of Liberty”? What do you believe was the height of the colonial crisis and what ultimately ended it?

2. Unit Plan In my unit plan I will first discuss the move to the New World and the hardships that the Europeans faced when they landed. I will then discuss the role of John Smith in the New World. I will also discuss the Native American encounters by the Europeans and the exchanges between them. Finally I will discuss the outcome of the move and how it led to important events in American history, such as the Pilgrims venture to the New World and other successes of America.
3. Learning Objectives * In this unit plan students will learn why and when the Europeans came to the New World. They will be able to pinpoint the location of departure of the Europeans and the location of settlement.* They will learn why settling was so difficult for the settlers in the New World.* Students will be able to determine what contributions were exchanged as well as the interactions between the settlers and Native Americans.* They will be able to understand major events in the New World and major change that was put in place by John Smith. * Students will learn and understand the outcome of the move and how it shaped America.
