The History curriculum in Grade Eight is much less structured than in earlier grades. A teacher may feel that one class still needs more immersion in the Renaissance before plunging into the icy and less aesthetic waters of the Reformation, while another teacher may have dealt with Luther and Copernicus in Grade Seven and is ready to rush headlong into the series of revolutions that transformed the world from the 17th through the 20th centuries. Although the work covered in this slideshow generally represents Grade Eight History, every eighth grade has its own historical character.
