During this month we will begin Unit 2: Native Americans. In this unit we will cover geography, climate, migration, different Native American groups in the US. We will have a special area of emphasis on the Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) and the local ties. We will have a map quiz as part of this unit as well as a major project.
For this project students will research a Native American group, construct a dwelling that they lived in, and present this to the class. We will work on the research in class and students will construct the dwellings at home.
