Aztec Ruins National Monument
For Teachers
Aztec Ruins provides many resources for teachers. Call the visitor center to reserve a traveling trunk of replica artifacts for use in your classroom. Stop by and ask about getting your own copy of the teacher's curriculum guide, full of readings and lesson plans. These lessons are also available to download and print from this website. Aztec Ruins is a great destination for a self-guided field trip. Click "Plan A Field Trip" for further information.
