Objective
There are three main objectives that the students will learn from this unit. Since it will be under the content area of social studies, I would like to teach the history of the event, The Long Walk, important geological sites, and the people involved with the Treaty of 1868. After teaching the three main ideas of the Navajo Long Walk, the curriculum can begin to shape the lesson of eloquence.
As one looks at this unit, a person will be able to use the history and background knowledge of any other ethnic group that a teacher wishes to use. By teaching from a familiar history the person will find the topic is easily parallel to the Navajo History. No matter if a teacher chooses to teach the Navajo history or another ethnic's history, one will be able to teach how eloquence and history go together. I encourage teachers to use this unit for learning about other cultures' eloquence other than Anglo-American leaders.
