Interpreting Rock Art of the Anasazi: Grades K-2 This National Geographic Xpedition lesson plan uses Native American art to acquaint students with the culture of the Anasazi and the lands where they lived. In the Four Corners region of the United States, a large amount of land contains cultural remains of prehistoric Anasazi pueblo farmers. Some remains are in the form of rock art-a general term for the pecking, incising, or painting of designs onto rock surfaces. Students are introduced to the ancient Anasazi people through samples of rock art preserved in the public lands of the Four Corners region. The national parks, which protect this land from vandalism and neglect, serve as a showcase for this Native American rock art. By studying these archaeological remains, students will understand more about the history and culture of these ancient pueblo farmers.

Extractions: Similar to Project Wild, Project Wet and Project Learning Tree, Project Archaeology is an educational program designed to teach young people to value and protect the rich cultural heritage of America. In April, two representatives from Fort Bragg Cultural Resource along with a Fort Bragg Elementary School Teacher attended a workshop at the University of North Carolina (UNC) Chapel Hill. The workshop allowed archeologist/teacher teams to learn how to conduct teacher training seminars in the use of " Intrigue of the Past " in the grade 4-8 classroom. "Intrigue of the Past" is a set of lesson plans based on the original Project Archaeology lesson plans developed by the Bureau for Land Management. The UNC research laboratories of archaeology developed the "Intrigue" lessons in association with North Carolina educators, Native Americans and archaeologists. A free teacher workshop is currently being planned for the near future. Hands-on instruction in the classroom use of "Intrigue of the Past" lesson plans will be offered. The workshop will be held in the Public Works Compound environmental classroom on Fort Bragg. There will be 10 hours of instruction time and continuing education credits are available. If you would like more information or are interested in attending please call 396-6680.
