Class experience
This is a class where students will learn how to research a topic (the gold rush), take notes, and write using an information structure. Students will get feedback on their work all throughout the process. This is a favorite project of my students and it's always been engaging and fun for them to do! During class, I will teach how to do the assignment, and then students will have a little time to get started with me on zoom. They will need to finish that small assignment before the class...
Students will learn how to research a topic on the gold rush, how to take notes, and how to transfer those notes into sentences. Students will also learn how to write an information paper using their research notes.
I've taught 4th grade for 8 years and this is a project I created and have used for my class each year. Students LOVE this project! I love to incorporate a social studies topic with a writing unit...it makes it engaging and fun for students!

This historical event did affect Indigenous populations. We will be focusing on predetermined subtopics that pertain to more of the "what" for the gold rush. For example, what was mining, what did miners wear, what was the transcontinental railroad, etc. I've taught this subject for over 9 years, and there has never been a student who has a question about anything potentially sensitive. If the conversation comes up, I will be redirecting students to focus on their subtopic and the writing aspect of the project.
We will be using EPIC (a website of a vast variety of children's books) for students to do their research. Students will go on EPIC and search books about the gold rush that include their subtopics.
