by Rolene Dugi
An Arizona 3rd grade standard is to learn about Arizona tribes ways of living, how they depend on their environment to shape their world. Students will use their hands, forearm, body height and hand span to measure a hogan they'd like to build one day, but they'll need to create a miniature version of their design.
