Our destinations include Apple River Canyon State Park, Chicago, and Springfield. As we journey through these fascinating tourist spots, you’ll also learn about the historical ties behind many of them. There’s plenty of nature to attract your eye, from the red feathers of the northern cardinal to the purple, yellow, and white violets that dot the landscape. Our study of this midwestern state also takes a look at how and why its economy has been rooted in soil since the beginning. Student Book activities include mapping, lesson summaries, skyscrapers, the world-famous Bean sculpture, the Transcontinental Railroad, and candy making.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003e\n    The unit is designed to cover all your subjects (math available separately).\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003e\n    This listing is for the printed books.
