Objectives are to help students understand the behavior of the Northwest Pacific Coast Indians, the Hopi Indians of the Southwest, and the Midwest families by studying their social organization, homes, villages, work, games, sports, food, dress, religious beliefs and practices, societies, dances, ceremonies, myths, art forms, and the natural vegetation and resources of the areas in which they live. Unit activities are many and varied. For example, students read and discuss books, view films, do library research, write reports, make topical outlines, make bulletin boards, give oral reports, and participate in classroom discussions. Included in the unit are lists of resources to be used and a chart indicating unit content and objectives. The appendices, which comprise about two-thirds of the document, contain supplemental material for each of the units, including newspaper articles, essays, lists of vocabulary and terms, short reading selections, diagrams of family trees, a pronunciation guide, and evaluation instruments.
