Lesson 8: Common Core Connection (part 2)

The 5^th grade standard 4.RI.3 includes historical events and how they are related. Students could compare and contrast different cultures from different time periods using the pictures in Camio. They could work in a small group and each research the same time period, and then the groups would switch so they would all be an “expert” about some of the artifacts and would be able to share their results with their new group. It would take more organizing and direction, but I can seem them really enjoying these pictures since they are so often drawn to non-fiction, visuals, and history.
