Settlement Sea to Shining Sea Unit Package

Sea to Shining Sea focuses largely on revisiting the previous five units with reviews of the Steps for Thinking, Spelling, Vocabulary, Editing, History, Science, and States sections. Unit literature plunges us into the midst of the Klondike Gold Rush, and introduces students to our 26th President, Theodore Roosevelt. Along with exploring the history of political parties in the United States, they are once again challenged to discuss themes, identify rhyme patterns, and illustrate imagery in verses copied from “America the Beautiful.” Plus, as a culminating activity, students research, design, and create their own home-state projects. This, along with the fun of cooking, painting, period songs, and projects completes the year-long study in Paths of Settlement!
