This resource examines the gold rushes of the 19th century in different states of Australia and considers how these impacted on society in general, as well as the demography and economics of the continent.
The resource aligns with Australian Curriculum History, Civics and Citizenship, Economics and Business and HASS for years 5 and 6.
The activities embedded in the programs make the subjects more engaging for the students as well as the teacher.
