4th grade and Native Americans

The 4th grade Social Studies classes have been working on Native Americans. The students are choosing 2 of the 6 Native American tribes studied to compare and contrast. The 6 tribes are the Inuit, Kwakiutl, Nez Perce, Hopi, Pawnee, and the Seminole. Our fourth graders are using information from their textbook, library books, encyclopedias, GALILEO, and Nettrekker. The students are locating information on where the tribe settled and how each tribe used their environment to obtain food, shelter, and clothing. The information is then transferred to a Powerpoint presentation to summarize their findings.
