The purpose of this research is to establish the typology of teaching materials based on kebhinekatunggalikaan using geographical variances in the Sumbawa language. This study employs a qualitative approach. Data collection methods include interviews and documentation, and data analysis is done using the intralingual equivalent approach. The results of the analysis, found several types of language elements to build togetherness on diversity, namely related elements in the form of dialectal variations and ancient forms of the Sumbawa language. The element of the ancient Sumbawa language is a unifying tool, while the "similarity" which can be varied can be used to mark kebhinekatunggalikaan. The related elements are: (a) the exact same elements, for example for the meaning of 'eye', 'foot', 'dead', 'hand', and so on; (b) similar elements, for example for the meaning of 'fear', 'goat', 'thin', and so on; and (c) elements that are not similar at all. The last two forms can be regular and irregular. These findings indicate that the teaching materials are relevant to be taught to students in grades 4-6 at the elementary school level, although they can also be taught to junior high school students.
