=5th grade Economics=



===The purpose of this unit is to educate 5th grade students about economics in early America and relate those issues to economics in modern times. Our unit covers various economic characteristics such as: Money management, the Fur Trade, Conflict and Change, Colonial Times, and much more. We plan to educate our students using various resources including: technology (internet, document cameras, computers, interactive games), books, photos, games, tangible objects (artifacts), and other materials. We are confident that our use of multiple approaches and hands-on activities will create a exciting and engaging atmosphere that will encourage students to learn and excel in their economics learning.===
