TALKING GOD’S HOUSE PET
R.U.F.F. is an acronym that stands for Reservations' Unwanted Four-Footed Friends and started by Susan Fadler in the early 1990s. Organized for establishing homes for the unwanted and neglected animals on the Navajo Reservation, Susan began taking rescued animals into classrooms to help teach the children about animal behavior, care and health. She soon found out that using an animal helped extrapolate expressions of emotions which would otherwise be harbored or unexpressed by the child. It also incorporated self-esteem where all else had failed. Using a natural catalyst, puppies and kittens, to teach responsible behavior proved to be extremely effective. Teachers began requesting materials to help teach history, geography, culture, and language. The Wilson Foundation was instrumental in providing the necessary funding to get Susan's curriculum written. It was nominated by teachers and administrators in 1996 and went on to win the 1st place Golden Bell award from the ASBA as a best new curriculum that year.

Pet Ownership - Are You Ready?
Pet Ownership - Are You Ready? asks important questions about the responsibility of pet ownership. Dogs on the Navajo Reservation are seen wandering about, starving and sometimes sick. Why is this allowed to happen? Who is responsible? What exactly is a pet? Culturally, how is the dog viewed? Can these problems be overcome? These are some of the questions asked in this animal based curriculum which is part of the RUFF Program, Reservations Unwanted Four-Footed Friends. Students examine different social issues and asked what they could do. Responsibility is discussed as well as health issues and diseases that can be spread from unhealthy dogs and cats. Questions such as; what makes a good pet? What is not a good pet? How important is it to vaccinate a pet? How important is safety for humans and pets? These questions are asked and used as prompts to encourage cooperative thinking. Along with problem solving skills this is a great way to teach social studies and the ability to bring a change in attitude.

The Vicar of Wakefield Illustrated
Oliver Goldsmith's hugely successful novel of 1766 remained for generations one of the most highly regarded and beloved works of eighteenth-century fiction. It depicts the fall and rise of the Primrose family, presided over by the benevolent vicar, the narrator of a fairy-tale plot of impersonation and deception, the abduction of a beautiful heroine and the machinations of an aristocratic villain. By turns comic and sentimental, the novel's popularity owes much to its recognizable depiction of domestic life and loving family relationships.
