This Unit was designed in August 2010 as a final project for both ED680 - Multicultural Education (Jody Smothers-Marcello) and ED631 - Educational Psychology (Karin Macklin). Special focuses of the unit included incorporating the Alaskan Cultural Standards, accommodating students of different developmental levels and abilities, and creating curriculum that is accessible to students of all cultures in my learning community (West Anchorage High School). This unit was part of a collaborative cross-subject area curriculum developed with Ben Clark (social studies) and Carl Blackhurst (physical education), both of Sitka, Alaska. I taught some of the lessons in this unit in conjunction with my teaching of To Kill a Mockingbird in Fall of 2010 at West High School.
