The first in a series of workbooks integrating social studies with core subjects, Gold Nuggets combines accurate historical information about the California Gold Rush with 4th grade math curriculum. Figure out how many steps miners traveled on the road to California. Calculate the area of an actual mining claim on the Yuba River. Graph the changes in gold prices since the Gold Rush. Students love doing math problems that are REAL-and correspond to events in history that really happened. Each lesson is designed with the student in mind: easy to read directions, with enough space for students to write responses. These activity books have been extensively tested in classroom and homeschool settings--and have received rave reviews from students, parents, and teachers.
