Abstract	This scope and sequence is intended to provide direction for Arizona's schools in developing citizenship education programs. The first part of the publication discusses the state's philosophy of citizenship education. Citizenship in its broadest definition is membership in a group; it is a condition of belonging. For citizenship to be observable or identifiable, it must be manifested in some form of action or behavior. These two aspects, belongingness and action, provide the bases for Arizona's citizenship education model. The goals of citizenship education, discussed in the second section, are to help the student: (1) understand self in relation to others, (2) understand the ways people organize and adapt, (3) understand the development of Arizona and the United States, and (4) apply knowledge in making rational civic decisions. The third section, which comprises over half of the publication, contains scope and sequence charts indicating the level--primary, intermediate, junior high, senior high--at which particular citizenship skills are emphasized. The publication concludes with a brief discussion of how to evaluate students' effectiveness as citizens. (RM)
