Teacher Resources
Students will learn how four American Indian communities are working to address serious environmental problems. They will watch brief videos, answer focus questions, use interactives, and complete the Student Project Planner to see how environmental issues are intertwined with cultural preservation. To demonstrate what they’ve learned, students will share a presentation with the class.
