MyTown Mystery assignments require students to find out information about their own community, as called for in the California History-Social Science standards. The MyTown lessons are designed to build concepts that students then apply to their own community. For example, Lesson One has students think about why people might want to settle in California. The Mystery assignment then asks students to find out about the settlement of their community.
All of the Mystery handouts contain the warning to students that they must be with an adult to use the Internet. In support of the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and the Children’s Internet Protection Act (CIPA), CRF cannot direct young children to its web site since we have outside links. However, we have provided some valuable local history links for communities in California that students could use under adult supervision.
