This section features hundreds of standards-based, multimedia lessons that cover major subject areas (Math, Science, Language Arts, Social Studies, Language and Culture, and more) in K-12 curricula. A number of these lessons are designed for Navajo students and incorporate aspects of Navajo culture, history, and language. Some lessons are offered in Navajo and English language versions as well as some in Spanish.
These lessons are archived in an online database that allows users to search for lessons by key words, subject area, level (primary, middle school, and high school), and language, among other criteria.
We hope you enjoy these lessons and use these lessons to develop student achievement and technological literacy.
The Media Gallery provides a collection of multimedia resources, consisting of digital images as well as audio and video files. These resources provide media elements used in TECH Share lessons, and are organized in a searchable database. Please explore the media gallery and use these items in creating new materials.
