The Civil War
Expansion and Conflict
Welcome Scholars! The following 5 lessons linked across the top of this website will take you through the Expansion and Conflict unit on the Civil War.
We will be exploring many aspects of the war, but our main focus will be the essential question:
Why did we fight a civil war?
Things to think about as you move through this lesson- What were the factors that lead to the war? Why was slavery such an important part? What role did women play? Where did this all take place?
