Why Geography? Alaska, the 49th state admitted to the United States, is unique in many aspects. The largest state in the Union it is one-fifth of the other forty nine states in size. Easily divided into five distinct regions each region is the size of a large state itself. Geologically Alaska is a new land, formed between 195 and 65 million years ago. Alaska has over 6,600 miles of Arctic and Pacific Ocean coastline, and is home to America's third longest river, three million lakes and ponds and hundreds of waterways. It is also home to Mount McKinley, North America's tallest mountain. There are more than eighty potentially active volcanoes in Alaska, and it is commonplace for earthquakes and tremors. Alaska is roughly two miles away from Siberia, and shares a border with two Canadian provinces. In the 1914 memoir of an Episcopal Bishop Alaska was referred to as, "not one country but many, with different climates, different resources, different problems, different populations, different interests; and what is true of one part of it is often grotesquely untrue of other parts..." (Stuck Hudson ix-x). Alaska's geography has had a profound effect on its settlement, its development and on its dependence on the "outside". Why look at Alaska's geography? It is a state that has some of the richest supplies of natural resources, yet its relience on those makes it also one of the most vulnerable states economically. Its history of Russian occupation, Native American settlement and gold rush pioneers are ties directly to the land and its resources. The energy crisis in America today will force an examination over Alaska's hotbed - ANWR (Arctic National Wildlife Refuge). Alaska's 378 million acres of "Great Land" are what make Alaska, politically, economically and socially - in the past as well as the present.

The Kodiak Island Archipelago is a large group of islands about 30 miles off the coast of Alaska. The archipelago is about 177 miles long and encompasses nearly 5,000 square miles, roughly the size of the state of Connecticut.
At 3,588 square miles, Kodiak Island is the largest island in the group and the second largest island in the United States. Only the island of Hawaii is larger. The City of Kodiak, at the northeastern tip of the island, is about 250 miles south of Anchorage. The city serves as the major supply and transportation hub for the archipelago's six villages. Although the main population center surrounds the City of Kodiak, there are also six small cities in the Kodiak Archipelago. Five are located on Kodiak Island and one is on Spruce Island. Each of the cities can be reached by aircraft or boat.

The Census Bureau is not making any changes to this program for Census 2000. We will tabulate data for these areas.
    Block Definition project
    In the Block Definition project, the tribes have the opportunity to identify features they want the Census Bureau to hold as Census 2000 block boundaries. The resulting block definitions should represent smaller units of geography that better represent the American Indian communities and thus support their data needs from Census 2000. We did not modify this program for Census 2000.

    by Tracy Elkins, Ann Hooser, Rhonda Madrid, Becky Ortiz Introduction Task Resources Process ... Conclusion
    Introduction You know how weird parents can be, right? Well, yours have just announced that the family is going to take a vacation during the school year and you have a chance to decide where. The catch is (you know there's always one with parents) it has to be an educational experience. You know the other kids are trying to figure out how to make a trip to Disneyland educational. This will never get past your parents. You have to come up with a vacation plan that everyone will love. You have to make this good, cause you don't want to end up wandering through a stuffy old museum like last year. You've heard about this sled dog race in Alaska called the Iditarod and wonder if maybe this would be not only a vacation but an adventure your family would never forget.
    The Task To convince your parents that Alaska is the best place to go for a vacation, your class is going to learn as much as they can about the race, Alaska, and the people that live there. To add to the fun, the class will act as a TV news team to gather information. There will be 5 groups of reporters. Each one will cover one of the following topics: history, geography, art and culture, math, and science. We will have a live news cast that will be taped for parents who won't be able to make it. History Reporters 1. You will need to know some history of the Iditarod. To help you with this there are several

    TIT;E: A STUDY OF ALASKA AUTHOR: Rosie Tenge; Anchorage School Dist., Anchorage, AK GRADE LEVEL/SUBJECT: 2 - 12; Geography, history, reading OVERVIEW: Many students are not interested in, nor do they see any relevance or importance in the study of Alaska. They see Alaska as their home "for the time being." They also make the assumption that because they live here, they already know everything about Alaska. PURPOSE: The purpose of this unit is to teach students about the state of Alaska. Activities used in the unit will encourage reading, and writing-related-to-reading. The unit materials will encourage interest in Alaska's history and Alaska's geography (as one of our newest states). Designated activities will teach or review "how to research." Many "hands on opportunities" to observe or participate in will be provided. The unit should be taught in early February preceding Fur Rondy (state-wide, week- long, Alaskan celebration) and the world-famous Iditarod Race held in late February or early March (lasts 11 days - one month). The activities of the unit should be geared toward stimulating interest in both of these historic events. OBJECTIVES: As a result of this unit, students will be able to: 1. locate Alaska on a globe and wall map; 2. locate 2 main rivers on an Alaskan map; 3. locate 20 significant places on an Alaskan map; 4. locate 4 Alaskan island; 5. learn 15 new Alaskan vocabulary words (ex. musher's vocabulary); 6. locate on a map (Alaskan) where the 3 main native groups live; 7. learn 5 Alaskan "facts" (state bird, state song title, state flower, etc.) RESOURCES/MATERIALS: 1. globe, and wall map of Alaska 2. speakers (dog musher, framer of the Alaska constitution, pipeline employee, trapper, etc.) 3. Iditarod Trail map (large and current) 4. samples of Alaskan native food (optional) 5. Fur Rondy brochures (list all of activities for nine days) 6. Alaska magazines 7. Alaska Almanac 8. Daily newspapers 9. Alaska souvenirs ACTIVITIES AND PROCEDURES: 1. At the beginning of the unit, have the class "brainstorm" a list of words (on the blackboard) that come to mind when they think of Alaska. (get from 40- 60 words, keep a copy of the list) 2. Following the brainstorming activity, give students from 20-30 minutes to write a creative story about Alaska using all (or 99%) of the words on the "blackboard list." Remind students to be creative. 3. Have students illustrate their story. 4. "Share" the Alaskan stories orally in class on another day. 5. Give a pre-test that would include a blank map ("put on all the places that you know or have been to"); vocabulary list ("define all the words that you recognize"); list of important Alaskan people ("identify those you know something about"); section that tests for other historical information. Give the same test at the end of the unit. (Tell students when they take the pre-test, "you will see this information again.") 6. Students can write a Geo-Poem as part of the unit. 7. Have students bring in Alaskan items to share (students must know the history and explain it to the class). 8. Have students bring in a favorite Alaskan recipe with samples to taste, if possible, otherwise just make copies of the recipes for the class members. 9. Students can follow the Iditarod Race (keep daily journals using the newspaper). 10. Sing together the Fur Rondy theme song and the Iditarod theme song. 11. Teacher should publish a small book of their Alaskan stories, Geo-Poems, and recipes for each student to keep as a souvenir. TYING IT ALL TOGETHER: 1. Give the post-test 2. Hand out small book of published students' writings (a surprise for them) 3. Briefly discuss (as a class) how much you know now about Alaska as opposed to what you thought you already knew.
