The Native American Research Project. This project covers 3 weeks and is centered around Native American tribes in North America. The students will complete a research paper and also create a model depicting the village of the tribe they have been assigned. They will be divided into groups and each assigned a Native American tribe. They will be required to write a research paper about their tribe, how they lived, how they responded when the Europeans arrived, they will also give their opinion on what could have been done to make the transition easier. This research paper will require a works cited page. The students will also create a model depicting the village of the tribe they have been assigned. They will present this project to the class and give a brief overview of their tribe. This presentation will be videoed (when permissible) and posted along with their paper to their class blog. Their model villages will also be put on display at the school for all other classes to come by ans see and ask questions to the students. The link above will take you to a website that has been created for this assignment. On the site you will find a project overview, unit calender, and rubrics that will be used by the teacher and their peers.
