I wanted to be able to teach the standard of long ago vs. today without making vests and pilgrim hats. Now if this is something you do, no judgement from me. I just knew for me there was a better way. We study Native American Homes, and how the region the Native Americans lived in, along with the natural resources available effected what kinds of homes they built. In this unit, students get to build model homes of Long Houses, Adobe Homes and Chickees.
First, we read about the different types of homes, who built them, where those people lived etc. This is a full color projectable book.
There are 2 black and white mini-book options included in this pack, one for Kindergarten and one for 1st-2nd grade readers.
My favorite part of this unit however is the STEM component. Students get to build model Native American homes.
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Hi Kerry -Would love this unit-It is not in your store though.
