1776 Curriculum Commercial
Created by a team of independent scholars, counselors, and role models, the 1776 Unites curriculum equips students to seize the opportunities afforded them today. These lessons are grounded in the Woodson Center Principles and help educators bring their K-12 students encouragement, enrichment, and the genuine empowerment that comes with personal agency.
As 1776 Unites founder Robert L. Woodson put it, America’s founding generation built the new nation “upon a set of virtues and values that would create a truly free society, the freest the world had ever seen. They even knew at the time it was falling short of truly delivering on that promise for all, but they knew what they were working toward.”
Each lesson in our 1776 Unites curriculum includes lesson plans, assignments, discussion questions, multimedia, and other resources. Designed to integrate easily with existing course expectations and learning outcomes, each module will have students engaging in appropriate response activities that provide opportunities for clear, measurable learning assessment. The curriculum can be implemented anywhere a child’s character is formed, whether that be the classroom, an after-school program, summer camp, church, or at home.
It is essential that children learn they are agents of their own uplift, knowing their possibilities, responsibilities, and what it means to be an American.
