T he purpose of this educator’s guide is to align the California Learning
Standards and STEM with engaging curriculum that provides real world
experiences while propelling students to a higher level of thinking during an
educa onal tour of the Rose Bowl Stadium. This educator’s guide is created
for Kindergarten through Grade Eight.

Focus
Grade levels have been grouped into four focus seg-‐
ments, Grades K-1, 2-3, 4-5, and finally 6-8. Below are
the concentra ons for each of the grade segments.
Grades K-1 learn and enhance their map and globe
skills through pre and post classroom ac vi es, while
exercising their map and STEM skills on the tour with
a hands on Rose Bowl Stadium Map ac vity.
Grades 2-3 broaden not only their STEM knowledge
through a hands on Rose Bowl Stadium worksheet,
but also through pre and post classroom ac vi es
that focus on history as a compila on of stories.
Grades 4-5 focus their a en on on the topic of histo-‐
ry as a series of chronological events with pre, during,
and post tour ac vi es, while also broadening their
knowledge of STEM with STEM related ques ons.
Grades 6-8 concentrate on the past and present, par-‐
cularly on American history during the period of the
late 19th and 20th centuries. Students are asked to
think about the bigger picture, and how history re-‐
lates to today. STEM subjects can also be included.
