Native American Project Outline

It’s Project Time!
Dear Parents and Friends,

Independent, theme-related projects are part of the 3/4 grade expectations. As part of our study of Native Americans, all classes are thinking about the over-arching question of “How did the regional environment impact the Native American culture?” While all students are learning about the tribes of the Eastern Woodlands, individual classes are focusing on an identified region:

Mrs. D’Andrea—Southeast Region Mrs. Behun—Far North Region
Mrs. Feussner—Southwest Region Mrs. Whitman—Plains Region
Mrs. McCormack—Northwest Region

Attached is a “Native American Project Descriptions” sheet to further explain how students will plan and prepare their individual projects. All completed projects are due at school no later than Monday, October 26. As you will notice, the written component of this project will be completed in the classroom and will also be completed by the due date.

Should you have any further questions, feel free to contact you child’s classroom teacher.
Thank you for supporting your child’s learning!
