Challenge: Can you build an accurate model of a Native American home using the "natural resources" provided?
The resounding answer was YES!
And in the process, we learned about the diversity of North America and the the diversity of the Native Americans.
Can you build a Plains Native American tepee (tipi, teepee)?
Can you build a Southwest Native American hogan?
Can you build a Southeast Native American chickee?
The second grade Treasure Seekers also took up the challenge:
Can you build an Arctic igloo?
Can you build a Northwest Native American plank house?
Can you build a Southwest Native American Pueblo?
Can you build a Northeast Native American wigwam?
Can you build a Northeast Native American longhouse?
Each group took up the STEAM challenge
and showed that
yes, they could build a home
and add a lot of accessories!
And we all learned a lot from each other in the process.
