Mr. Feehan's WebPage - 8th Grade Social StudiesWelcome back! I am very excited to start the 2015-2016 school year and look forward to an enriching and successful year for all of us! This is my third year teaching at Hackensack Middle School and every year has become more enjoyable for me. As your teacher, I am dedicated to making sure that all of you push yourselves to become not only better students, but better citizens and members of your community as well.
Course Description:This course is designed for each student to learn and examine the different social, political, and physical developments that have helped to shape the United States. This course will focus on the development of our nation and how it came to be the way we know it today. The topics that will be covered include Political Parties and Elections, the American Revolution, American Geography, Demography, Culture (Westward Expansion), the Preamble of the Constitution, The Constitution, the Amendments, and the Civil War.
