About This Lesson
Students will use the Tlingit House Partition with Shakes Family Crest to guide their learning about the Tlingit people’s views on animals and their relationship to humans. Students will then explore their own views on animals, as well as those of their culture, and compare them to those of the Tlingit people. Students will research an animal to learn more about its habitat, means of survival, and status (e.g. endangered or not).
This resource offers appropriate opportunities for students in grades 2-7 to conduct research on various animals.
