  I realize Google is not the be all end all of finding relevant information on the internet, but I did a search for: "are cross curricular units beneficial"
  and these are the top 2 hits:

  This first article lists no references in support of the positions outlined in the article.
  The next result was:
  https://www.eduplace.com/rdg/res/literacy/interd1.html
  This article was published in 1997, as was the next one.
  So I decided enough of Google and went to Albertson's Library and found this:

  So at least I now have a concrete example of why Google is not the answer to everything to share with my students.
