Wednesday - 8/19/09

In class today we read about four tribes of Native Americans and where they resided. We then read the myth "Earth of Turtle's Back" which is from the Onondaga tribe. It discusses the origins of the earth. After reading we talked about what the myth explained and how the Native Americans felt about nature and animals, based on this myth. Students then wrote their own origin myth on their writer's notebooks.

Reminder: Tomorrow is Picture Day! We will be taking pictures in each LA class.
