This unit is an integration of the fifth grade standard
course of study for language arts and social studies. It is designed to
accomodate all students on their instructional reading levels. A part of
this unit shows teachers how to instruct special needs learners while still
using this unit plan. Students engage in many activities that focus
on westward expansion. In this unit you will find launch activities to
start your unit, social studies lessons, a guide to the three reading levels
using literature circles, and closure ideas that could be modified to fit
different teachers needs.
