Visiting the Native Americans:
A Webquest for Elementary Students
created by Karen Go ebel Introduction Task ... Conclusion Introduction Social Scientists at the University of Virginia have been granted a round-trip ticket on a new time machine. The time travelers wish to use their ticket to visit the Native Americans before the European settlers arrived, and have narrowed their choices to 3 tribes: the Monacans, the Pueblos and the Sioux. Our class has been asked to help them decide which tribe to visit. The class will be divided into three groups and each group will be assigned one of these tribes to research. After you have learned about your tribe, you will need to convince the time travelers that they should use their time machine ticket to visit your tribe! back to top
The Task Each team will be expected to create a HyperStudio slide show on their tribe in order to convince the time travelers to visit your tribe in their journey back in time. Each team will present their slide show to the rest of the members of the class. The slide show should contain the following information about each tribe:
  • The location of the tribe and the geographic features of that area The roles tribal members played in the community. Did they have a medicine man? One chief or many? Did the men and women do the same kinds of work?

Entries Publication Data Advisory Board Maps ... World Civilizations Encyclopedia of North American Indians
Textiles
The story of textile evolution in prehistoric North America begins in about 200 a.d. Woven textile fragments from this era found in the arid southwestern part of the United States point to hundreds of years of simple finger weaving, whereby vegetal fibers and human and animal hairs were twisted into threads that were then plaited, interlooped, braided, or netted into small textile objects such as sashes, belts, bandoleers, small bags, and footgear. Although these woven objects were limited in size, they often carried surprisingly sophisticated woven designs—sometimes colored by vegetal or mineral dyes and paints. Scholars have determined that this preloom stage lasted until sometime between a.d. 500 and 700, when rudimentary loom forms—now believed to have come from Mexico—began to appear in the Southwest. The suspension-bar "loom" brought control of many more strands of weaving threads than finger manipulation could manage. This early development involved the attachment of a horizontal wooden pole between two stationary uprights, from which many hand-spun threads were suspended, allowing the weaver to interweave the hanging threads together, using one or more finger-weaving techniques. The next significant technical advance—more in the direction of the true loom—came in the form of the belt loom, which provided for threads to be attached in warp fashion to a body-wide bar, which was in turn attached to a belt worn around the weaver's waist on the near end and affixed to a similar bar attached to a vertical fixed pole or some rigid object on the far end. This contraption allowed the weaver to lean forward or backward to control the tension of the warp threads for a more convenient crosswise insertion of flexible weft threads.

American Indian Masks
Masks have been part of dance regalia and traditional ceremonies in many Indian tribes since ancient times. The most renowned native mask-makers were the Northwest Coast Indians, who carved elaborate cedar dance masks. The most impressive of these could be opened at a pivotal point in the story to reveal a second face carved within the first one. The Hopi and other Pueblo Indians carve and paint wooden kachina masks for their traditional dances the Iroquois create sacred "false face" masks from wood and cornhusks, the Navajo and Apache make leather masks for dancing, and the Cherokee would craft gourd masks for storytelling. Cherokee mask art has fallen into decline since the forced removal of the Cherokees to Oklahoma, where their traditional mask materials were not available, but some artists are working to revive the tradition Southwestern and Northwest Coast mask carving remain a vibrant part of contemporary native culture. Today most American Indian masks are used for dances, cultural drama, decoration, and as crafts for sale. The exception is Iroquois false faces, which are used only for internal religious ritual. The Iroquois consider it sacrilegious to sell, publicly display, or mimic a sacred false face mask, and they have been petitioning museums to return false faces from their exhibits. There is some debate among Iroquois traditionals about whether it is unacceptable to sell or display

Exploring Native Americans Across the Curriculum
Blast stereotypes with across-the-curriculum activities for students of all ages. Stereotypes of Native Americans abound in movies and on TV, in literature and in history books. "Teachers must provide accurate instruction not only about history but also about the contemporary lives of Native Americans," writes Debbie Reese in Teaching Young Children About Native Americans , a 1996 ERIC Digest. Reese is a Pueblo Indian who studies and works in the field of early childhood education. Stereotype is a difficult issue to define in any culture, especially in the Native American culture. As noted in A Line in the Sand , a Web site dedicated to the debate surrounding Native American stereotypes and other issues: "We want to be careful to note that this 'line in the sand' will not lie at the same place for everyone. ...We must recognize that not all Native American communities have had the same historical experience, either before or after 1492. For this reason, the members of these communities will have different opinions. There will be different opinions both between and within communities, just as there are in all human communities."

http://www.buckagram.com/buck/symbols/
  • Natural Forces and Objects /
    The Morning Star
    . The brightest star on the dawn's horizon. Considered an important spirit and honored as a kachina with most Pueblo Indians. Plains and the Great Basin Indians honored it as a sign of courage and purity of spirit. The Ghost Dance Religion associated it as a symbol of the coming renewal of tradition and resurrection of past heroes. Other spirits are sometimes represented as stars. The Sun The Zia . Named for Zia Pueblo, who first used it, it is another symbol of the sun, and also of the 4 directions and the repetition of life on earth. Also may be associated with the place of emergence. When New Mexico became a State, in 1912, the Zia was adopted as the symbol for the State Flag. It appears as the sun in red, honoring the Indian Nations, on a yellow field. Yellow was the royal color of the Spanish crown carried by the conquistador Coronado in 1540, known as his entrance into New Mexico. It was the first recorded European contact with the North American Indians.
    Life's Choices Spirits /
    Navajo Yeii Spirit
    Kokopelli The Twins The Hand Clowns / Arrows / So many different depiction’s of arrows are used. They usually symbolize direction, force, movement, power and direction of travel, also the pathway of the breath, the life force of the animal spirit, called the "heart line"

Return: Home CEEP Publications ERIC/EECE Publications Digests Teaching Young Children about Native Americans Debbie Reese EDO-PS-96-3
    May 1996 Young children's conceptions of Native Americans often develop out of media portrayals and classroom role playing of the events of the First Thanksgiving. The conception of Native Americans gained from such early exposure is both inaccurate and potentially damaging to others. For example, a visitor to a child care center heard a four-year-old saying, "Indians aren't people. They're all dead." This child had already acquired an inaccurate view of Native Americans, even though her classmates were children of many cultures, including a Native American child. Derman-Sparks ( ) asserts that by failing to challenge existing biases we allow children to adopt attitudes based on inaccuracies. Her book is a guide for developing curriculum materials that reflect cultural diversity. This digest seeks to build on this effort by focusing on teaching children in early childhood classrooms about Native Americans. Note that this digest, though it uses the term "Native American," recognizes and respects the common use of the term "American Indian" to describe the indigenous people of North America. While it is most accurate to use the tribal name when speaking of a specific tribe, there is no definitive preference for the use of "Native American" or "American Indian" among tribes or in the general literature.

    Contents of Curriculum Unit 98.03.08:
    To Guide Entry
    In this unit I concentrate on four tribes that exemplify some of the diversity of the North American continent. The Inuits people of the Arctic region, the Iroquois of the Eastern Woodlands, the nomadic Plains Indians of the Sioux tribe and the Southwestern Hopi. For each of the above tribes I inform and demonstrate the creation of some artifact endemic to their culture. For instance, the Inuits crafted many masks to be used in rituals to ask for assistance in the hunt for arctic animals. The Iroquois used Wampum Beads in a wide variety of ways. The Sioux documented important events on buffalo hides, which were called winter counts. The Hopi had Kachina dolls that were the personification of spirit helpers. Even though these items are particular to each of these tribes, the concepts behind them are not. All Native American created some type of mask that was used in rituals to ask the Spirit-that-moved-in-all-things for help or to give thanks. Likewise, many other tribes besides the Iroquois had items which had symbolic value for trading. The Sioux were certainly not the only people to come up with pictographic writing, and there are many other Native Americans that used some type of miniature spirit helper like a Kachina. After the students have created their own interpretation of each of the above artifacts, they move on to learning about the shelters and the villages of each of these tribes. For the Inuits the class will construct a diorama of a typical snow covered igloo, the longhouse of the Iroquois, a tepee for the Sioux and a pueblo for the Hopi. In this unit I demonstrate what materials work well and suggest ways to develop those materials to construct entire village dioramas for maximum authenticity.
