Native American Project
Students have been assigned their first at home project! Native American Projects are due on Monday, November 12th. This gives us a few days to present them in class before displaying them in the library. Students have been asked to pick a Native American tribe to research. They are NOT ALLOWED to pick the Powhatan, Pueblo, or Lakota tribe. We learn about them in school. Pick your tribe, research all about that tribe, create a 3-D project and complete the booklet sent home! Please let me know if you have any questions!
