Saguaro National Park’s Teachers Guide is a guide to the natural and cultural resources of Saguaro National Park. This guide provides valuable information on the park and incorporates an outstanding variety of pre-visit and post-visit activities for teachers and students in 4th grade, but can be modified for other grades as well. We hope these materials will provide you and your students with a depth of information and activity options that will greatly enhance their understanding and enjoyment of the Sonoran Desert and its peoples.
