the past couple weeks students have spent their time learning about Native Americans. We began our unit by learning about how the first people got here over 10,000 years ago. They love learning about the land ice bridge! Students then selected a tribe to become an expert on and began their research. They learned about their homes, clothing, customs, games, and other interesting facts. Check out the pictures below of our class totem pole. Once class chose a BULL to represent me. HA! Before you worry about it too much it represents that I have lived in Spain and participated in the Running of the Bulls twice! :) Our Native American Day this year was fantastic! Students completed at home projects to accompany their at school research and projects. We had homes, weapons, dioramas, legends, and even a hog's bladder volleyball. Once parents and guests enjoyed the museum students enjoyed a Native American style Potlatch Feast.
