MUSHING ACROSS ALASKA..

                  For several years I have incorporated Alaska and the

                           Iditarod Race in my winter unit.  Perhaps my enthusiasm has

                      been contagious.   I have always wanted to participate in

                      this race from Anchorage to Nome.  The interest and 

                      fascination for the land, people, cultures, and   and

                       dog sledding has been universal in the primary and 

                       intermediate classes I have taught. This section 

                       incorporates curriculum for young students but many of the

                       ideas and resources are easily extended to the intermediate

                       level.  However, I will be adding an intermediate Alaska

                       page for a novel study during the summer of 2000.

                                   The Musher's Menu will lead you through the

                       various topics and curriculum areas.  Click the mouse arrow

                       to the underlined topic for a direct link.  I will be adding

                        more information within the next few weeks.

                                                 Happy Mushing,
