Texas is known for its unique history. Kids in Texas schools are taught this history throughout their time in school, but it is heavily extensive in the 4th and 7th grades where the student’s history class sole focus is on Texas history due to them being tested on the material for STAAR. There students learn about the beginnings of Texas from when it was a part of Mexico to when they fought the war for independence from Mexico (Texas Revolution) to becoming a republic to of course learning about Texas becoming state. Student’s in school are most likely taught this material from the perspective of using a text book and lectures. This only gives them the view from what the state has compiled and felt what material is most important to teach students
