TEMPLE CHRISTIAN SCHOOL
COURSE NAME: World History
GRADE LEVEL: Sophomore (10th)
COURSE PHILOSOPHY: World History studies provide a comprehensive overview of the history of mankind.
From the Garden of Eden up through the twentieth century, students examine the significant events, people, and
issues that have shaped man’s world and development. Sophomore World History differs from middle school level
World History through its deeper examination and analysis of historical information. Students are encouraged to
discover the connections that exist between cultures, governments, religions, and races in the overarching view of
man’s timeline. A strong emphasis on evaluating cause and effect prompts thinking at higher cognitive levels.
SPIRITUAL EMPHASIS: World History uniquely allows the student to observe man’s history from God’s
viewpoint – as Creator, Sustainer, and Provider. The course encourages students to view historical events from the
perspective of our Maker and His design for mankind. The inclusion of the Bible and its references to historical
figures and events adds a deep spiritual solidarity to the textbook information. Reference to God’s principles in
connection with cause and effect analysis enables students to place a Christian worldview perspective in place as
they examine critical events and figures of history.
