Always the prairies, pastures, forests, vast cities, travelers, Kanada, the snows; Always these compact lands lands tied at the hips with the belt stringing the huge oval lakes; Always the West, with strong native persons All sights, South, North, East all deeds, promiscuously done at all times, All characters, movements, growths. . . . Walt Whitman, American Vistas F rom Robert Frost's New England farms to John Steinbeck's California valleys to Eudora Welty's Mississippi Delta, American authors have shaped our view of America's regional landscapes in all their astonishing variety. They have created unforgettable characters, inseparably identified with the territory they inhabit. The Yearling's wandering in the Florida woods, Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue Ox's exploits in the dark northern pines, Huckleberry Finn and Jim's adventures on the Mississippi River, and the Joad family's exhausting trek to California have become an enduring part of the American imagination. Language of the Land uses the metaphor of a journey to tour this rich literary heritage through maps, the words of authors, images of characters, and photographs.

86. Museum Of The American West | Welcome & History and geographical elements of the history and peoples Certainly, the american Westpresented within the boundaries of art and artifacts to fulfill specific roles http://www.autry-museum.org/museum/index.php

Welcome to the Museum of the American West (formerly Autry Museum of Western Heritage) Dear Visitor, You are invited to explore the rich cultural tapestry of the American West. Our wide-ranging exhibitions, collections, programs, and educational offerings connect the past to the present and showcase the history of the region west of the Mississippi River. People from many cultures and ethnic groups have played roles, large and small, in settling and shaping the American West. As we explore their stories, we learn more about ourselves. The West has historically been one of the most multicultural regions in the United States, and it is important for each of us to acknowledge the work and worth of everyone who has contributed to the creation of this marvelous whole. Please join us in a wonderful adventure of discovery of the American West. History When the museum opened to the public in November 1988, its creators had been focused for several years on the institutional mission to explore the broad temporal, topical, and geographical elements of the history and peoples of the West. At the same time, they were not surprised that some members of the public would expect the museum to be a monument to the life and personal memorabilia of recording, broadcasting, film, and performing legend Gene Autry. Hard work, good fortune, strategic loans, and supportive donors made success, for the most part, possible. When the museum opened to the public after three years of planning, the cases and walls displayed objects that had been originally envisioned as ideal, and the collection was given a context by the story told by the objects and labels in the galleries. This story was, of course, just one interpretation. In the years since then, the collection has grown, many changes have been made in the galleries, and new visions of the staff and academic and community advisors have broadened and sharpened the scope of the institution's holdings.

87. Peg's American History Unit Welcome to quotColonies" part one in an american history unit study! In 1996 I was trying to plan an american history unit study that I could use for my twins when they reach high school age. http://members.aol.com/PegFlint/unitstudy_colonies.html

Welcome to "Colonies" - part one in an American History unit study! In 1996 I was trying to plan an American History unit study that I could use for my twins when they reach high school age. I wanted to cover not only American history events, but also art, architecture, music and literature. I believed that these were a "reflection" of what was going on in society at various points of time and that they needed to be included in the study of history. The military moved us very suddenly that summer and I didn't get a chance to continue writing the unit study. As I write this today, we are studying world history for the next year or so - but I am continuing to think ahead to when we hit American history - and if I should continue to write this unit study. I was using several textbooks as resources and I refer to them often. You may feel free to use this 4 week unit (it is really a 5 week unit but 4 weeks are shown) in any way you want AS LONG AS YOU DO NOT SELL IT OR PUBLISH IT WITHOUT MY PERMISSION . In other words, you may print it up to share with a friend (or 10 friends) or share it with a homeschool support group - or even use it in a Co-op! However, since I am considering whether or not I have the time to finish writing this (and whether it is worth the time to write it) and may therefore include these items in the unit study (should I publish it) - you may NOT publish it without my permission!

An Overview of American Soccer History By Dave Litterer spectrum@sover.net This page is a detailed historical overview of United States soccer from its roots in the 19th century to the present day. NEW: The first sections, from 1609-1921 have been completely revised and extensed. Enjoy! Origins, 1609-1862 The first football clubs were established in Sheffield in 1857, and soon they had enough to establish their own Football Association in 1867. Sheffield FA played London FA in 1861, one of the first regional matches. And eventually the need for a unified set of rules became obvious. This, prompted by many letters to the editors of the newspapers in the midlands, the near-north, and London regions of England, and led to a series of meetings, which culminated in the formation of the Football Association (FA) in 1863. This group attempted to establish a series of rules, which would please everyone, but they couldn't resolve issues such as use of hands, allowing hacking of opponents, etc. Many supporters of these elements (considered more "manly") eventually withdrew and formed the Rugby Football Union, and the FA established rules more similar to the modern game. The next major development was the establishment of a knockout cup in 1871, based on the house competitions at Harrow School. These knockouts, in which most teams names are placed in a hat, and drawn out in pairs, then leading to a one-game knockout competition similar to the NCAA Championships, which culminates in a Cup trophy.

History Aztec , is a startlingly imprecise term to describe the culture that dominated the Valley of Mexico in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. Properly speaking, all the Nahua-speaking peoples in the Valley of Mexico were Aztecs, while the culture that dominated the area was a tribe of the Mexica (pronounced "me-shee-ka") called the Tenochca ("te-noch-ka"). At the time of the European conquest, they called themselves either "Tenochca" or " Toltec ," which was the name assumed by the bearers of the Classic Mesoamerican culture. The earliest we know about the Mexica is that they migrated from the north into the Valley of Mexico as early as the twelfth century AD, well after the close of the Classic Period in Mesoamerica. They were a subject and abject people, forced to live on the worst lands in the valley. They adopted the cultural patterns (called Mixteca-Pueblo ) that originated in the culture of Toltec (which means "craftsman"), who continued Classic urban culture, and the Chichimec , or wild people, who settled Mesoamerica from the north. The Mexica were, then, originally Chichimec when they migrated into Mexico, but eventually became Toltecs proper. Tenochtitlan , or "place of the Tenochcas."

For instance you could write on one wall THE RAINFORREST, THE DESSERT, THE JUNGLES OF SOUTH AMERICA, THE OCEANS OF THE WORLD , THE MOUNTAINS OF THE HIMALAYAS. Have students research one area and make crafts of the animals and habitats of that region. Such as making trees, cactus plants, large trees with hanging vines and branches. Have each student have a specific item to research and make crafts for on the wall. Some areas to research would be animal, weather, habitat, time zone, exports, tourism and population, languages, cultures of the people living there. At the end of the unit have parents come in to see the walls and the reports hung up in each region. Have students give their reports to the whole class and point to their particular art or craft on the wall that represents what they found out about. This would be great to show parents on parent teacher conferences. E-Mail Debbie Like our site?

The aim of this project is the production of the Phonological Atlas of North America, which will chart the present state of the phonological systems of urban dialects, and the advance of sound changes in progress. A first sample of the urbanized areas of the United States was completed as of June 1, 1997, yielding data on the vowel systems of 607 Telsur speakers. All speakers are local to the speech community studied, raised in that city. For all speakers, phonetic transcriptions of minimal pairs and elicited forms yield information on the progress of ongoing mergers. Maps showing the current state of six mergers on the basis of the main sample are now available on the Phonological Atlas home page. In addition, the Phonological Atlas home page also provides access to the paper on "The organization of dialect diversity in North America." This was presented at the ICSLP4 meeting in Philadelphia in October 1996 and contains the general framework for our approach to sound changes in progress, with maps on the data available at that time.
