Gold!



The students read the Gold Rush story in our reading book to learn more about pioneers.  They also read about the Gold Rush in the Social studies book while studying the West.  After reading in both subjects, Phil Morreim showed the students how to pan for Gold!  Look at the nugget that was found!  At the end, the students all had a chance to use a metal detector to help them find treasures in the grass.
