Part of a series designed to introduce the culture of the Alaskan Indians to elementary school students, the unit contains materials related to seasonal Tlingit activities and a guide for elementary classroom teachers to implement the student materials. The guide describes the format of the unit, suggests activities, lists resource materials, and explains the anthropological background of the unit. Sections one through five: (1) discuss how the Tlingits deal with the environment of southeastern Alaska; (2) describe a summer/fall fish camp, introduce clan structure, and explore Tlingit attitudes toward animals; (3) examine home and village life in winter, and introduce students to Tlingit folk tales; (4) deal with relationships with other villages; and (5) summarize springtime fishing and planting activities. Each section indicates objectives, materials, resources, activities, and background information. Learning activities include educational games, drawing and writing exercises, model making, analyzing folk tales, and recreating Tlingit menus. The 12 student materials include documents on fishing and canoe making, a radio play and puppet show which describe supernatural powers attributed to ravens, five tales of Tlingit life and beliefs, and descriptive brochures on Tlingit home and community environment.
