I tutor a 5th grader and they just recently learned about the Ancient Pueblos. I do a little extra research on what they study to add in interesting stuff or get ideas to help him remember things.
So he was learning about the Anasazi. So, I explained the name and what I consider the better name, Ancient Pueblo. There were actually a few other things I noticed that were pretty Irritating, as well. I'm a fanatic for knowledge and accuracy.
The school doesn't have a lot of money, but I have asked them to update their social study books. So, at the very least, they're aware.
