Introduction:  Long ago, North America was very different from the way it is today. The first people arrived in North America from Asia by crossing a land bridge that temporarily connected the continents. Since these were the first people to live in North America, they are known as Native Americans. Many different cultures of Native Americans developed over the course of time. Culture refers to the people's way of life. Each culture was affected by the natural resources that were available to them. Natural resources were used as tools for survival providing such necessities as food, clothing, and shelter.

Native American WebQuest

Task Your task is to research a North American tribe and to make some things that depict the daily life of that tribe. You will add these things to the museum display of the Native Americans of one of five Native American cultures of the 5 regions of the United States.

Process         First, you will be placed in museum team groups of two or three.          Each person in the group will use a worksheet to record the facts you will need.          Each person will have a checklist to insure that all the work has been completed.          I am the museum director.  I will choose which display your team will be working. Regions: Northwest Coast Southwest Plains Northeast Southeast          Use the selected Information Sheets (1) (2) (3) to record the information you find. (This copy will be a rough draft of your group paper.)

         Use your Checklist to stay on task!

         On white lined paper, rewrite the information from your Information Sheets in complete sentences.  Edit this copy with the help of the Museum Director. Turn in your group report to the Museum Director.

Next:         Choose a project to add to the museum.          Fill out a plan sheet for your project to be approved by the Museum Director (that's me!)          Gather the items you will need for your project.          Complete the project at home with your group.          Write a display card for your project. When your display is complete, give the museum director a tour of your display.
