Unit of Study - American Indians
In social studies, we have studied homes, foods, culture and location of both Eastern Woodland and Plains American Indian. We had a wonderful display of authentic Sioux articles of clothing including hand beaded moccasins.
Mrs. Hewitt recently attended a workshop put on by the Lummi Nation to learn more about being culturally sensitive when teaching about the American Indian. She is excited to implement what she learned into the Social Studies Curriculum.
