• Lay a length of mural paper on the floor and
group the students around it. Place the concrete
materials (from lesson 1) on the mural
paper. Have the students fill the mural paper
with tracings of the concrete materials - repeat
the Tlingit/Haida/Tsimshian vocabulary words
many times as the students work. When the
tracings are finished, the students can colour
them in. Display the completed mural in the
classroom or hallway.
• Lay a length of mural paper on the floor and
divide it into sections - one section for each of
the buildings introduced in this unit. The students
should then go through old magazines
and catalogs to find pictures that represent the
different items. They should glue the pictures in
the correct sections of the mural paper. Some
items will be appropriate for more than one of
the buildings. Display the completed mural in
the classroom or hallway.
• Introduce the dialog from this unit to the students.
Practice the dialog with the students in
choral, group and individual forms.
• Lay all of the concrete materials, from above,
on the floor. Have two students sit beside the
items. Blindfold the two students. Be certain
that nothing sharp is included in the concrete
materials. Name one of the items and say
“Go.” The two students must try to find the item
that you named. Repeat with other pairs of students.
Prepare a sheet of small vocabulary illustrations,
based on the key vocabulary
words for this unit. Make a copy of the page
for each student. The students should take
the illustrations page home so that they can
say the Tlingit/Haida/Tsimshian vocabulary
words to the members of their families.
