Abstract	These activities for grades 4-8 are designed to promote understanding, appreciation, and respect for the diversity of cultures in the United States. Activities focus on four groups: American Indians, blacks, Asian Americans, and Mexican Americans. Using an interdisciplinary approach, the material is appropriate for fine arts, language arts, home economics, literature and oral traditions, and social science. Art students construct sand paintings, jewelry, paper folding art, bamboo flutes, murals, pinatas, and maracas. Music students examine tribal music, jazz, Japanese instruments, and mariachi bands. Home economic students explore ethnic cooking. Literature readings include legends, coyote tales, Yoruba tales, Brer Rabbit, dragon tales, and Mexican Indian legends. Social science classes investigate Indian wars, disease, reservations, and organizations; slavery, segregation, and the civil rights movement; Japanese, Chinese, and Southeast Asian immigration; and illegal aliens, Mexican independence, and the Chicano organization. A test booklet is also provided. (KC)
