Think Fast! About the Past app

In this Mission US app, kids and students play one of five quiz-based missions to see what they know about US history. 

  • Mission 1 takes students to Boston in 1770 to explore colonial history. 
  • Mission 2 takes students to Kentucky in 1850 to learn about slavery and resistance in the pre-Civil War era.
  • Misson 3 takes students to the northern plains to help the Northern Cheyenne tribe to track and hunt a buffalo herd.
  • Mission 4 takes students on an immigrant’s journey in the Progressive era as she works to save the money to bring her family to America.
  • Mission 5 takes students on a exploration of New Deal construction projects.

Each mission has about 10 timed questions, and opportunities to replay with different question sets. Also available as an iPad app.
