Ideal workbook for social studies classes teaching diversity

This workbook is an excellent introduction to the culture of the Inuit people of Alaska. It starts with a short description of their location, traditions, and a folk tale. This is followed by a set of stencils depicting the creatures of the Inuit mythology. They can be removed from the book and used to make trace drawings. It ends with a series of projects involving the making of traditional Inuit items. An ideal workbook for social studies classes teaching the diversity of world cultures, I strongly recommend it for late elementary and middle schools. It can also be used by children who just want to learn more about the Inuit.
