City Research


Students are researching different big cities across the United States, and will ultimately, compare and contrast features of their city of study to Chicago's features for their final social studies unit this year.   

Yesterday, they were given their "city teams" - or students who they will work with to learn more about their city of study.  Students have been SO enthusiastic and interested in this unit so far!

The cities our class will be exploring are: Houston, Phoenix, Portland, Boston, Atlanta, New York City, Denver, Philadelphia, Miami, Washington D.C., and Los Angeles.  If you have any informational resources or items that would help students learn more about one of the cities listed above, we would love to use that resource in the classroom!
