Veteran's Day Holiday and Weather Day Thur and Fri. November 11-12!

Indian Projects

One of my favorite units of 3rd grade has finally arrived:  Early American Indian tribes- Ch. 3 in Social Studies.  The kids have absolutely loved this chapter, and don't want to give it up! 
These American Indians came from the 4 corners of the U.S. 
They are:
Navajo--Southwest
Yurok---North Coastal California
Cherokee--Southeast
Haudenosaunee--Northern New York and Wisconsin. 
Each student chose their favorite tribe and built their project at home.  Thank you, Parents for participating and helping your child with his/her projects!
They've all learned so much and had a lot of pride in their homes.
Next is Ch. 4...Explorers Arrive
