Value

Have you ever heard someone say a particular item is, “worth its weight in gold?” No matter the item, we know it must have great value. This week’s CERCA Slides social studies set on “Value” asks students, “How do cultures assign value to goods and currencies?”

Paired with the direct instruction lesson, “Summarizing Informational Texts,” this set is sure to inspire students to think differently about the value of money and goods in the world around them!
