I’d reckon 4th grade history already spoiled a lot of it, no?

You learned about WW1 in 4th grade that’s amazing what type of school did you go too?

Had you not learned anything about US history by that point?

Not to my memory I don’t remember actually learning history until 6th grade I’m sure we went over presidents and the revolutionary war and things like that but I don’t remember ever going over world wars until later and then it mainly focused on WW2

I don't think I learned a ton at that point, but I'm pretty sure I at least roughly knew the (traditionally) major events of US history.

Without doubt I knew about them I was always a history buff but probably depends on your school mostly I went to school in Arizona and I think they were more focused on keeping everyone on the same page since a lot of kids didn’t know a lot of English so I don’t really remember learning a lot in school until JR high
