| Description | This study group focuses on the period from the Scientific Revolution to modern times. Through lively stories and engaging hands on activities, students will: Learn about the Age of Enlightenment and the investigations of Isaac Newton and Ben Franklin. Meet James Madison, father of the U.S. Constitution. Explore the causes and consequences of the French Revolution. Learn about independence movements in Latin America. See how great changes—nationalism, industrialism, and imperialism—shaped, and sometimes shattered, the modern world, leading to the two World Wars. Get to know many inventors and innovators who achieved great advances in communication, transportation, medicine, and government. We will plan an optional trip to the MFA to view the Napoleon Exibit. |
