Native Americans of the Great Plains are resourceful people. These tribes found a use for every part of the buffalo. Native Americans would use buffalo to create tools, shelter, clothing, food, and much more. Honestly, I was so impressed with the many ways in which buffalo was used.

Native American School Projects

Native American School Projects will be so much fun for students! Trust me, they will make great memories while learning interesting facts while participating in Native American School Projects. Students enjoyed working with different Native Americans tribes for their Native American projects. The Native American tribes my students worked with are the ones outlined in the Georgia Social Studies Standards. These tribes were Inuit Native Americans, Kwakiutl Native Americans, Pawnee Native Americans, Seminole Native Americans, Hopi Native Americans, and Nez Perce Native Americans. Each tribe gave my students the opportunity to learn interesting facts and new stories my. I really enjoy teaching this social studies unit.

Native American projects for 2nd grade can be so much fun!

These flipbooks were designed for each Native American tribe in order to present information in a different way. I knew if I pulled chunks of content and presented it to my students, it would be easier for them to digest. So, I used one Native American tribe at the time to help students process the many Native Americans facts.

My students and I love working with flipbooks, especially in social studies. In the flipbook I also provide an opportunity for students to draw and give an extension of the lesson. My students are so creative!

Native American Craft Supplies

When planning for Native American School Project, first decide what tribe the project will represent. Then, do research on that specific tribe. After, look around the house for items you can use and make a list of what native american craft supplies that need to be purchased. Check out Amazon.com and Hobby Lobby. Hobby Lobby has a excellent selection of sheet of sod for grass, Native American figures, buffalo figures, and many other options. I wanted to share a few native american craft supplies that I found.

This assignment of Native American projects excited my students. Native American project letters and the project rubric were sent home and students were given 2 weeks to complete the assignment. At school I went into great detail with my students about the rubric so they would know what to expect. I was blown away with the amount of Native Americans facts and the many details students included in this social studies projects.
