Have you ever wanted to know why some Indians lived in tepees or how they survived without the modern conveniences that the settlers had? We’ll answer these questions and many more in this class. We will study the people groups already in the Americas when Europeans arrived. We will learn about their homes. (They didn’t all live in tepees.) We’ll also learn all about their diet, family life, religious beliefs, and how they got along with other tribes and the settlers. We will learn all about their way of life in the past and present. We will try Indian foods, games, and crafts.
In first semester, we will focus on North America. Second semester we will focus on Central and South America, the Caribbean and Polynesian Islands. We will be making a notebook by filling out a one page report for each tribe we explore. We will also be doing crafts and projects. Students should be able to read and write sentences. If your student needs assistance in this area, please talk with me. Please let me know if your child has food allergies since we will be trying several food items throughout this class.
Class Expectations: There will be very little homework in this class. There may be a few projects that we send home, but no weekly homework. Students in this class will need to be able to read and write sentences since we will be completing a one page fill in report each week in class together.
Students Supplies: Pencil, crayons or colored pencils, glue, and scissors
Teacher will provide: All craft supplies, papers, and report book that we will be filling out each week.
