Are you a 4th Grade teacher looking for resources to teach Native American history as part of your social studies standards? Consider bringing the Ute STEM Kit to your classroom or incorporating it into a field trip! During this program students will investigate how the Ute people used science, technology, engineering and math to survive and thrive in the Rocky Mountains. Through activities such as an interactive map exploration, matching and challenges, students will work as a class and in smaller teams to test materials and strategies to see how Ute people solved problems in the past and still do today. This program meets history, math and science standards. The Ute STEM kit was developed by History Colorado in partnership with the Southern Ute Indian Tribe, Ute Mountain Ute Tribe, and the Ute Indian Tribe of the Uintah & Ouray Reservation.
