Native American Artwork

In Social Studies we have been studying the Native Americans and their history as it relates to Minnesota.  This has lead to some great discussions about how we treat others and what is considered fair.  We learned about what daily life was like for the Dakota Native Americans before the Europeans arrived.  We compared their lives to our own.  We ended this unit with a Native American art project in which each student had to pick a theme and all of the their Native American symbols had to relate to it.
