In this one-time class we will take a closer look at the Indigenous Native groups of Alaska. Students will be introduced to the major different groups (Inupiat, Yupik, Aleuts, Athabaskans, Tlingit and Haida), where they live and similarities and differences among the groups. We will also briefly talk about how Alaska has only one reservation. The class will be mainly a lecture style with a Power Point presentation that includes information, pictures and map. Students will be able to ask questions and discuss what they learned.
Other Details
Parental Guidance
There will be a brief moment where boarding schools are mentioned and how they have affected the Tlingit people. I will not go into the trauma, but briefly how it was hard on families and how it affected family histories, such as my own.
