Description
No prep! Teach the Gold Rush using these six age-appropriate and engaging texts and activities. Bonus file included. We created our own California Gold Rush curriculum that covers everything important but is flexible enough to use in a variety of ways. We wanted each section to be able to stand alone, so we decided related activities should be included.
Our comprehensive Gold Rush Series of informational original articles each focus on a specific aspect of the California Gold Rush. The first in the series is "The Early Days" and spotlights the "backstory" and first few months of 1848. Students will learn about John Sutter, Sutter's Fort, James Marshall, Sutter's Mill, Sam Brannan, methods to test gold, and the entry of the U.S. into the territorial picture.
The rest of the series covers the following: Gold Fever, Land Routes, Sea Routes, Minorities, and Mining Tools and Techniques.
Bonus Ink-Friendly versions included!
