Unit 4 Spanish Rule Ends & Age of Empresarios
This unit bundles student expectations that relate to the newly independent Mexican government���s policy of establishing an empresario system in its efforts to control territory in Texas. Early in the nineteenth century, events in Europe affected the Spanish colonies in the New World. In the course of these events, colonists in Mexico fought and gained independence from Spanish rule. Mexican officials made the control of Texas a priority and instituted a system to bring permanent settlers to the region. During the early nineteenth century Texas became the home to many settlers from the United States, who brought with them a different culture than that of the Mexicans. Eventually these cultural differences gave rise to growing tensions between colonists and Mexican officials. Prior to this unit, students studied Spanish exploration of Texas and how the building of missions and presidios by the Spanish government were efforts to colonize Texas. During this unit, students study about the events related to Mexican independence from Spain and the implementation of the land grant system by the Mexican government as a means of colonizing Texas. Additionally students study about how the efforts of Mexican officials to control immigrants from the United States in Texas resulted in growing tensions.

Unit 5 Principles of the Constitution
This unit bundles student expectations that address the requirements for Celebrate Freedom Week. Each Celebrate Freedom Week unit is designed to provide time for instruction that meets the requirements of Celebrate Freedom Week and Constitution Day, and to offer an opportunity to view those requirements through the lens of the content course requirements as well. In Grade 7, during this week, students look at the similarities and differences between the Texas Constitution and the U.S. Constitution, and between the Texas Bill of Rights and the U.S. Bill of Rights. These issues are also addressed in a later unit. (7) State and federal laws mandate a variety of celebrations and observances, including Celebrate Freedom Week. (A) Each social studies class shall include, during Celebrate Freedom Week as provided under the TEC, ��29.907, or during another full school week as determined by the board of trustees of a school district, appropriate instruction concerning the intent, meaning, and importance of the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution, including the Bill of Rights, in their historical contexts. The study of the Declaration of Independence must include the study of the relationship of the ideas expressed in that document to subsequent American history, including the relationship of its ideas to the rich diversity of our people as a nation of immigrants, the American Revolution, the formulation of the U.S. Constitution, and the abolitionist movement, which led to the Emancipation Proclamation and the women's suffrage movement. (B) Each school district shall require that, during Celebrate Freedom Week or other week of instruction prescribed under subparagraph (A) of this paragraph, students in Grades 3-12 study and recite the following text: "We hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all Men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness--That to secure these Rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just Powers from the Consent of the Governed."

Unit 6 Texas Independence
This unit bundles student expectations that relate to the issues and events surrounding the fight in Texas for independence from Mexico. As tensions grew in Texas, Mexican officials attempted to impose more control over the settlers. Eventually political changes in Mexico forced settlers in Texas to pursue independence.

During that time, Texans met to form a new government as well as battled Mexico���s army at Gonzales, the Alamo, Goliad, and San Jacinto. The victory at San Jacinto signified the end of Mexican rule in Texas. Prior to this unit, students studied about Mexico gaining independence from Spain and the policies of Mexico to implement a land grant system in Texas. In grade 4, students studied the same events surrounding the Texas Revolution, while in grade 5 they studied the events of the American Revolution.

Unit 2 Early European Settlers
This unit bundles student expectations that address the exploration of Texas and early efforts by the Spanish to colonize Texas. Early European exploration of Texas was motivated primarily by the quest for gold. Both Spanish and French explorers made forays into Texas in the sixteenth century. Competition between France and Spain to claim land in the New World fueled Spanish desires to colonize and control Texas. The Spanish began the process of colonizing Texas by building a series of missions and presidios in the territory. The struggle to control a vast empire plagued the Spanish and eventually the missions and presidios were abandoned. Prior to this unit, students studied about the physical geographic regions of Texas and how American Indian groups were influenced by the geography of Texas. Students also studied about the Texas Constitution during Celebrate Freedom Week. In the elementary grades students studied about the expedition of Juan de O��ate as one of the first Spanish explorers to travel through Texas.

Unit 7 Early Statehood- Texas
This unit bundles student expectations that address the issues and events surrounding the Republic of Texas and the process of Texas becoming a state in the United States. After Texans gained independence from Mexico, Texas became a nation that faced many challenges. The new republic was modeled after the U.S. republic and some Texans wanted Texas to join the United States. Early leaders of the Texas republic worked to provide security for Texans, establish government services, and address financial issues. Eventually Texans decided that many of the financial problems faced by the republic could be solved by joining the United States. The annexation of Texas triggered a boundary dispute with Mexico and war broke out between Mexico and the United States. The treaties that ended the war established the borders of Texas. The vast amounts of cheap land available in Texas during the mid1800s fueled European immigration to Texas. This immigration gave shape to the unique culture of Texas. Prior to this unit, students learned about the events and issues of the Texas Revolution. During this unit, students study about the issues faced by the leaders of the Republic of Texas, the events that led to annexation of Texas by the United States, the causes and consequences of the war between Mexico and the United States, and issues related to the influx of European immigrants to Texas in the mid1800s.
