    World Cultures

    This course is designed to familiarize students with the cultural and historical aspects of geography, economics, politics, religions, social activities and problems of peoples and nations around the world.

    We will accomplish this by using a regional/unit approach to the study of human history and culture.In each regional unit, students will learn about the region's geography, history and traditions, economics and daily life, literature and the arts, as well as the role of the region in the world today.
