Go to any of the sites listed below (or use the sites you have already read) and pick a woman who was alive sometime between 1870 and 1930.  It can be one of the women you’ve already learned about in this unit, or someone else.

You will make a Flowgram answering these questions about the woman:

1) Who was she and what did she do?

Jane Addams was born September 6, 1860 died  May 21, 1935.  She is best known as the founder of Hull House, a place that provided aid to poor working-class families in Chicago. Addams was one of a small number of women in her generation to graduate from college. Her commitment to improving the lives of those around her led to her work for social reform and world peace.

2) Why did you pick her?

In the same Flowgram, please pick a woman who you know personally (your grandmother, mother, a teacher, etc.) who reminds you of the famous woman you picked to write about.  Explain why she reminds you of that famous person

Why did Chinese immigrants come to California?

*the Chinese immigrants came to California because in Chinese were difficult to live.

How do you think the Chinese heard about the discovery of gold?

*I think the Chinese heard about the discovery of gold were not easy.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Chinese workers on the railroad were fed a Chinese diet including dried oysters, dried fish, sweet rice, crackers, dried bamboo, salted cabbage, Chinese sugar, dried fruits and vegetables, dried seaweed, Chinese bacon, dried mushrooms, peanut oil, tea, rice, pork, and chicken.  This was a much healthier diet than the beef, beans, bread, butter and potatoes of white workers at the time.  The Chinese also drank barrels of hot tea.   White workers, instead, would drink cold water.  Too often this water was contaminated and caused illness among the workers.

 

*Literal Question: what kind of food do the Chinese use to eat.

 

 

*Figurative Question: why do they have to work on the railroad.

7)On January 24, 1848, James Marshall spotted glittering flakes of gold in the American River. At the time he was working on helping to build a saw mill for John Sutter. He quickly took the gold to show Mr. Sutter and to get it tested. Sutter asked Marshall to keep the discovery of gold a secret until the construction of his mill was completed. However, that was one secret that was impossible to keep because 1)Then on December 5, 1848, President Polk announced that gold was discovered. This announcement caused one of the largest migrations to the west coast. Over 100,000 people made their way to California. These gold seekers were known as the "forty-niners."

 

2)Today it might be hard to understand why men left their homes and loved ones and traveled thousands of miles to look for gold. But in 1849, a prosperous farmer might make about two or three hundred dollars a year. A factory worker made about a dollar for working a twelve hour day. A skilled craftsmen made a dollar and a half a day.

 

3)Eventually, much of the gold that could be mined by hand had been found. Heavy machinery was needed to dig out the rest. Many miners went home penniless--or nearly so. John Sutter left California in 1851, heavily in debt. Miners had invaded his house and trampled his fields.. James W. Marshall, the man who first found the gold, had little success as a miner.

 

4)Still, many miners stayed. They started businesses in cities and towns or became farmers.. By 1856, San Francisco had more than 50,000 citizens and was the largest and most important city in the West. On its streets walked people from every corner of the world.

 

5)THE CALIFORNIA GOLD RUSH

 

 

6)On May 12, 1848, when word of the discovery reached San Francisco, the town's male population was about 600. On May 15, only about 200 men remained.

gold is a valuable metal.

 

8)By June 1, San Francisco was a ghost town--stores closed, ships abandoned, and houses deserted. Most of the men had run off to the gold fields. The town's newspapers even shut down. No one was left to write or read them.
