Mexican American War and Manifest Destiny

This week, the 7th graders are learning about how the United States expanded all the way to the Pacific Ocean.  Yesterday, they analyzed maps and paintings that idealized the image of Manifest Destiny.  Today, they participated in a simulation where they acted out scenes from the Mexican American War.  Later in the Week, they will learn about the California Gold Rush.

Questions for your 7th Grader:

  • What does Manifest Destiny mean?
  • Did the United States have a good reason to go to war with Mexico?
