    We did a unit where a student's family was relocating out to the western
    United States.
    They were to choose between 5 predetermined cities. They had to pick the
    one that was best for their family and their circumstances.
    We never gave a reason for the relocation. It could have bee job related,
    health related, etc.

    They had to research each city, compare and contrast criteria, etc.

    We have several resources on PBS TeacherSource which might meet your needs.
    Especially timely is the Build Your own Campaign unit, part of the PBS
    Democracy Project. Several of these lessons are math intensive and feature
    a reading component; take a look at "Get it on the Ballot" and the lessons
    on polling.

    Also check out the Math section of the TeacherSource website. You can
    access a wealth of lesson plans and articles, and can search by grade level
    and topic. The lessons are correlated to state, national, and (in some
    cases) local standards.
