Grade: 4
*This is a lesson I taught to fourth grade students during my student teaching internship.
1. Using the provided textbook, read and discuss about the Mountain Men in Idaho’s History.
2. While reading, fill out this graphic organizer, which documents clothing, food, shelter and family life of the Mountain Men.
3. Have the students write a creative story as if they were Mountain Men in this time period in Idaho. (Integrating Language Arts).
* For below-level learners, allow them to write short word answers in the graphic organizer. Assist them as much as possible in organizing and writing their stories.
