TARGET: foreign money

[Kim Monaco <kimberleym@ATT.NET>]

Hello,

I am doing a 5th-6th grade library skills lesson and incorporating =
reference source use as well as cultural awareness. The lesson will =
begin with my displaying different types of banknotes from around the =
world then ending with groups designing their own "money" based on =
research from their reference sources.   (this will last more than one =
period)

Question- have any of you also utilized "money" as a theme, and of so =
could you give me more ideas? I think I have this covered, but could =
always use variations on the foreign money theme for different grades!

Thank you!
