This manual is a compilation of resources from many teachers and other State Parks manuals. We are constantly striving to make this manual serve the teachers as best as it can. If you have an addition, comment, spelling correction, or idea pertaining to the information in this manual please send it to: ELP Manual c/o Petaluma Adobe State Historic Park 3325 Adobe Road Petaluma, CA 94954 Or email to [email protected] with the words “ELP Manual” in the subject line. We would especially like to thank the teachers who responded to our appeal to help us with the changes to the old manual that we felt was severely outdated. Many thanks go to Sandi Morgan who, for years, has been providing an excellent authentic 1840’s program for her students and parents. Sandi enlists the help of 8th grade docents, many of whom participated as 4th graders, who return as “Supervisors”. She has provided us with many sources and reading materials to enrich our program. Also, a big thanks to: Robin Joy from Fort Ross SHP who allowed us to borrow heavily from her reservation system and her manual. Larry Costa, retired State Park Ranger, who set the ball rolling many times to revamp the manual and who still contributes his words of wisdom. Glenn Burch, retired State Park Historian, who started this program for all the State Parks in the area. We are grateful to him for the work that he did and hope he’s enjoying his sails around the world. Peggy Fontenot, employee and volunteer, who contributed many materials for the cooking and Native American sections of the manual. Her work is invaluable. Vaughn Filer who dedicates her time to willingly helping with our Teachers’ Workshop. Nancy Stevens, retired teacher, who provided the outline for the cooking station rotation breakdown. To the previous teachers who have put their hearts and souls into making the Petaluma Adobe SHP ELP a great event for their students. It is a lot of work and we admire those who undertake it. To Sally, Sophie, Mop-top, Luna, Luma, Sol, and Matty who provide us with love and entertainment. To the park staff and volunteers who make the Teachers’ Workshop’s possible and enjoyable. 08-06-07 The Environmental Living Program Definition: “Environmental Living”, as the names implies, is an actual living, overnight experience for children that takes place at any cultural, historic, prehistoric, or natural site where the interaction and the interdependency of people and their environment are represented. It relies heavily on pre-program explorations and preparations, role- playing, and problem solving. “Environmental Living” is much more than this, by recreating and solving some of the environmental tasks and problems of the past, we can come to understand the present-solve some of our problems. Introduction: The Environmental Living Program is a role-playing experience through which the participants simulate a historic life style. Children, by experiencing as closely as possible, the reality of another time period or culture, become more acutely aware of both elements of that environment as their own. In both environments, they can and will have to solve many problems of living. Through this

    Historic Context Statement City of Benicia February 2011 Benicia, CA Prepared for City of Benicia Department of Public Works & Community Development Prepared by page & turnbull, inc. 1000 Sansome Street, Ste. 200, San Francisco CA 94111 415.362.5154 / www.page-turnbull.com Benicia Historic Context Statement FOREWORD “Benicia is a very pretty place; the situation is well chosen, the land gradually sloping back from the water, with ample space for the spread of the town. The anchorage is excellent, vessels of the largest size being able to tie so near shore as to land goods without lightering. The back country, including the Napa and Sonoma Valleys, is one of the finest agriculture districts in California. Notwithstanding these advantages, Benicia must always remain inferior in commercial advantages, both to San Francisco and Sacramento City.”1 So wrote Bayard Taylor in 1850, less than three years after Benicia’s founding, and another three years before the city would—at least briefly—serve as the capital of California. In the century that followed, Taylor’s assessment was echoed by many authors—that although Benicia had all the ingredients for a great metropolis, it was destined to remain in the shadow of others. Yet these assessments only tell a half truth. While Benicia never became the great commercial center envisioned by its founders, its role in Northern California history is nevertheless one that far outstrips the scale of its geography or the number of its citizens. Benicia gave rise to the first large industrial works in California, hosted the largest train ferries ever constructed, and housed the West Coast’s primary ordnance facility for over 100 years.

    Magical Clothing fo r Discerning Adventurers Anja Svare Sample file Introduction Table of Contents I really like making magic items. General Clothing 3 Now, there’s nothing wrong with how 5e presents the majority of magic items. But the tend to get a little stale. Potions are all essentially the same, scrolls don’t really have much interest Outerwear 6 other than what spell they contain, you’ve got a few interesting things that aren’t weapons or armor, but that’s about it. Most of those will either break a game because of their power, or Headwear 12 they should require a massive quest of campaign-level, world- spanning heroics to obtain. There just aren’t a lot of items that everyday adventurers want, Footwear 14 that won’t break the bank so to speak, and are things that are actually useful. Everybody wears clothes (I don’t want to think about nude D&D), and everybody loves magic items for their Accessories 16 character.. Combining the two seemed like a good idea, but I didn’t want Special Orders 20 to go with just pants, shirts, etc. I scoured the internet for medieval period clothing, and narrowed down a list of items that were common across a wide range of times and places throughout Europe during the Middle Ages. Now, I did come Glossary 22 across some interesting clothing items that fell outside that range or geography, and a few are included here. None of the items presented here are gender specific. I intentionally left any mention of that out of each item.

  • Ethnohistory and Ethnogeography of the Coast Miwok and Their Neighbors, 1783-1840
    ETHNOHISTORY AND ETHNOGEOGRAPHY OF THE COAST MIWOK AND THEIR NEIGHBORS, 1783-1840 by Randall Milliken Technical Paper presented to: National Park Service, Golden Gate NRA Cultural Resources and Museum Management Division Building 101, Fort Mason San Francisco, California Prepared by: Archaeological/Historical Consultants 609 Aileen Street Oakland, California 94609 June 2009 MANAGEMENT SUMMARY This report documents the locations of Spanish-contact period Coast Miwok regional and local communities in lands of present Marin and Sonoma counties, California. Furthermore, it documents previously unavailable information about those Coast Miwok communities as they struggled to survive and reform themselves within the context of the Franciscan missions between 1783 and 1840. Supplementary information is provided about neighboring Southern Pomo-speaking communities to the north during the same time period. The staff of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area (GGNRA) commissioned this study of the early native people of the Marin Peninsula upon recommendation from the report’s author. He had found that he was amassing a large amount of new information about the early Coast Miwoks at Mission Dolores in San Francisco while he was conducting a GGNRA-funded study of the Ramaytush Ohlone-speaking peoples of the San Francisco Peninsula. The original scope of work for this study called for the analysis and synthesis of sources identifying the Coast Miwok tribal communities that inhabited GGNRA parklands in Marin County prior to Spanish colonization. In addition, it asked for the documentation of cultural ties between those earlier native people and the members of the present-day community of Coast Miwok. The geographic area studied here reaches far to the north of GGNRA lands on the Marin Peninsula to encompass all lands inhabited by Coast Miwoks, as well as lands inhabited by Pomos who intermarried with them at Mission San Rafael.

    Historical People, Characters During the 1830-40’s there were various people who were in Sonoma and at Rancho de Petaluma. There is not a lot of written documentation that we have found about the women or wives of the men. We have tried our best to include good resources in the bibliography, but often the descriptions and details we desire for the role playing exercises are missing. We understand that there might be a lot of “creative” attributes given to the characters, however, we ask that the children stay within the realm of the possible. We are constantly searching for sources and ask for your help. Two resources are especially good on descriptions of the people and the period. Two Years Before the Mast by Richard Henry Dana A “journal” of a man’s experience at sea during the hide and tallow trade. His descriptions of the trade and process are excellent. As well, his description of the clothing and hairstyles of those in Monterey is very detailed. 75 Years in California by William Heath Davis A historian who actually visited the sites he wrote about. His book is still considered one of the best historical accounts of the time period for which he wrote. He did visit Rancho de Petaluma and wrote about it within the book. Mariano and Francisca Vallejo had 16 children together. Of these 16, 10 lived to adulthood. We don’t include the 6 who died in the historical figures list, but they are included on the Vallejo Family page. As well, some of the information about the family occurred after the dates of 1836-1846, which is the time period for Rancho de Petaluma.

The artifacts, derived from seven different geographical/cultural regions of Mexico, include maps, posters, objects that symbolize the regional culture, and typical regional costumes, music, and folk dance. It recommends a maximum of three to five regions be presented at one time to avoid overwhelming the students. The project can be used in high school Spanish, world or global studies or contemporary issues, or English as a second language classes. The use of cultural artifacts, music, and dance allows students to absorb the information in left and right brain manners (linear and symbolic). The project can be presented in an assembly or in one or more classroom presentations. The unit outline provides presentation information (with key questions and queries) and background notes; addresses Oregon state standards for social studies; cites objectives; lists materials and artifacts to be presented; gives teaching, strategies; discusses assessment/evaluation; suggests follow-up activities; and lists additional resources and references.
