This hands-on, interactive program puts teachers and their students in touch with local Cobb County historic resources while they learn about the cultural and folk traditions of their community. The "classroom" includes East Cobb's 1840s Hyde Farm and Power Cabin, Acworth's Rosenwald School and Bethel A.M.E. Church, Marietta's Root House Museum, and the Marietta Museum of History. The program brings the classroom to the streets of Marietta, with walking tours of the Church Street-Cherokee Street Historic District and the Marietta City Cemetery. In a more traditional classroom setting, the teachers attend sessions on oral history and architectural history.

This course is an intensive study of the Constitutional Convention, the struggle over ratification of the Constitution, and the creation of the Bill of Rights. It will include a close examination of the Federalist Papers and the Antifederalist papers.
