Task

**Task** You need to put yourself in the shoes of a miner. Think about the following: > Have you been successful or unsuccessful in finding gold?
 * How do you feel about your decision to come to the goldfields?
 * What is your daily life like?
 * Think about your peronal strengths and weaknesses - what would these bring to your life on the goldfields and how would they affect your ability to work?

You will write either a detailed **journal** of your days at the diggings, or a **series of detailed letters** home to your family telling them about your life on the goldfields. You may include drawings, maps or other things with your written task. At the completion of the unit, your journal entries or letters will be shared with the class and put on display.
