ABSTRACT
This 9-unit curriculum guide for 4th grade includes
activities relating to the cultural and environmental history of southern
Arizona, specifically the area known as the Pimeria Alta. The guide was
designed by a group of teachers to be thematic and sequential, and to deal
with the encounters of various cultures that are the history of the Santa
Cruz Valley. The thematic skills included are: Arizona history; social
studies; environmental science; multicultural education; art; critical
thinking; mathematics computation; and drama. The units can be taught
individually, but if used sequentially they will give the students a solid
background on the cultural and environmental impacts the various cultures had
on each ocher and on the Santa Cruz Valley. Each unit is composed of three
sections: historical (covers the people, their history and culture);
environmental (pertains to the natural environment, biological and natural
sciences); and tying it together (deals with how the environment affected the
people and how the people affected the environment). Each of the three
sections contains one or more activities, resources, references, background
information, and a vocabulary list. Extra materials such as readings,
worksheets, or visual aids are given at the end of each section and are to be
used in the actual teaching of the lesson.

ENCOUNTERS
Fourth Grade Teacher's Guide
On a crisp, cool morning, several teachers from the Santa Cruz Valley area met with
representatives from Tumacacori National Historical Park, Tubac Presidio State Historic Park,
and the Pimeria Alta Historical Society. The group gathered to begin work on a thematic,
sequential teachers' guide dealing with the encounters of cultures in our area. We didn't want
to write a textbook. We wanted an alternative; something that would give teachers background,
knowledge and resources, and still be open ended. It was important that it be "teacher friendly."
The ENCOUNTERS teachers' guide offers an alternative to a textbook on Arizona. It has more
information, resources and activities than we, as teachers, could hope to use in any given year.
In addition, the "Encounters Box," which is available in local school libraries, supplements the
guide with other activities, books, videos and tapes. The Units are sequentially ordered to cover
all periods of Arizona history, including the O'Odham, missionaries, Apaches, Mexican
Americans, and Anglos. The thematic skills included are: Arizona history, social studies,
environmental science, multicultural education, art, critical thinking, math computation, and
drama. The units can stand alone, but if used sequentially, they will give the teacher and
students a solid background on the cultural and environmental impacts the various cultures had
on each other and on the Santa Cruz Valley.

Specialist at Tumacacori National Historical Park. Or, you may contact him by email at

Using &e Teachers' Guide
The ENCOUNTERS Fourth Grade Teachers' Guide is organized into nine units
covering the various cultures that are the history of the Santa Cruz Valley. The units
can be used sequentially as written, or individually. Each unit is composed of three
sections: *
Historical:
covers the people, their history and culture.
Environmental:
pertains to the natural environment, biological 'and natural
sciences.
Tying it Together:
deals with how the environment affected the people, and
how the people affected the environment.
Each of the three sections contains one or more Activities, Enhancement, and Resources
and References. Most also contain Background Information, a Vocabulary list, and other
resources available in the Encounters Box (fl). An example and description of the
format used in these sections follows, on pages iii and iv.
Master Pages, found at the end of each section, provide materials to be used in the
actual teaching of the lesson, such as readings, worksheets, or visual aids. They may
be used to copy for student handouts or as a reference page for the teacher.
An exception to this section format occurs in Unit IV, Padre Kino. Because this unit is based on
*
the Kino Encounter Classroom Presentation, each theme box will portray a different picture than
those shown above.
