Mission US empowers learners through virtual exploration of interactive stories from the point of view of children during the Revolutionary War, Civil Rights Movement, Westward Expansion, the Great Depression, and more. Students can read primary sources/testimonials, witness past key events, and experience a visualized take on history.

Lesson Implementation:

Cultural Awareness can be taught to students through exploring perspectives of children across American history. By using the interactive For Crown or Colony? as an engagement tool, students can experience the choices Patriots and Loyalists made during the outset of the American Revolution. This aligns with current 4th grade curriculum standards in Maryland. It can be used to teach the state history along with manipulative artifacts, player choice that effects the fictional story of the character, and segments that reinforce the struggle the young nation endured for freedom from Britain.
