Grand Canyon National Park invites you and your students to participate in our education program. We offer six different curriculum-based programs: "Dynamic Earth", "Grand Canyon Rocks!" and "Stories in Stone" (earth science); "Rails and Tales" and "Time Travelers" (cultural history); and "Life on the Edge" (5-hour and 2.5 hour versions (ecology)). All six programs address specific national and Arizona State academic standards. Programs are free of charge and open to all schools and teachers.
We also offer teacher workshops and in-class ranger presentations. Please visit the links below to learn more about these offerings.

In Grand Canyon, the broad, sandy expanse on the north bank of the Colorado River is Unkar Delta, composed of rock debris carried from the North Rim by Unkar Creek. Prehistoric Pueblo people occupied numerous sites on Unkar Delta and along Unkar Creek for about 350 years (A.D. 850 to A.D. 1200)
