K-12 Curriculum Resources for Taiguini Books 

UOG Press worked with a group of K-12 CHamoru teachers from the Guam Department of Education to create curriculum guides, activities and presentations to help teachers use CHamoru publications published by Taiguini Books in their courses. Teachers were able to provide examples on how the books can help to achieve grade-level appropriate curriculum standards and be used to teach a variety of concepts, vocabulary, cultural values and much more.
