Check Out BRI’s New Middle School Resource!
<p>Did you know the Bill of Rights Institute recently introduced a new curriculum for middle school students? </p>
<p>BRI now offers <a href="https://billofrightsinstitute.org/curricula/building-a-self-governing-people-civics-us-history-for-middle-school" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Building a Self-Governing People: Civics & US History for Middle School</a>, a resource for students in grades 6-8. This 9-unit U.S. history and civics curriculum emphasizes the Founding Principles and civic virtues. It guides middle school students to explore how Americans have worked to create and sustain a self-governing, free society. </p>
<p>Building a Self-Governing People complements the curricula BRI introduced earlier this year for elementary and high school students, respectively, <a href="https://billofrightsinstitute.org/curricula/elementary" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">BRI Jr.</a> and <a href="https://billofrightsinstitute.org/curricula/government-and-politics-civics-for-the-american-experiment" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Government and Politics: Civics for the American Experiment</a>. The new middle school curriculum builds on the concepts introduced in those two resources and covers America’s history from the early colonial settlements to the Civil War. </p>
<p>All nine units of Building a Self-Governing People are currently available. <a href="https://billofrightsinstitute.org/curricula/building-a-self-governing-people-civics-us-history-for-middle-school" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Visit our website</a> for more information on this latest resource! </p>
