I felt that for the most part the presentations given on Wednesday were very informative and interesting.
I found the information on the boarding schools very interesting. I knew that they had existed, but I did not know how much of an atrocity they were.
While preparing my presentation I learned much about the names of the tribes in Montana. It was very interesting to see how their sign language was misinterpreted.
I think the suggestion of journaling is great and could be modified to work well with a variety of grade levels. I think a field trip to a Pow Wow would be an incredible teaching tool as well. In class activities such as learning some Native American sign language and building drums could also be effective teaching tools.
