Native Americans

We are studying Native Americans now...Pilgrims next. We are preparing for Thanksgiving, of course! :) So far, we have read about Indian life, looked through books of photographs, listened to Cherokee music, played a Native American pebbles-in-a-basket game, and the most fun so far? Face painting and feather headress-making today!! Next on the agenda is attempting to make a miniature teepee. I'm glad we throw in the these random subjects and unit studies, on top of our reading, writing, and math. It sure adds a lot of fun and variety to our days!! (and plenty of cute photo ops!)
