The students rotated through each kindergarten class room experiencing nine different cultural elements of the Native American people. One of the Kin dergarten social studies objec tives is to identify the purpose and customs associated with various special days including Thanks giving and birthdays. With this event, the students can actually experience this knowledge and information because it is done in such an accessible and inviting way. In Mrs. Pennington's room, shelter was discussed while stu dents made teepees using tortillas and decorated them with Indian signs. In Mrs. Thomas's room, students enjoyed pumpkin pan cakes with apple juice as they observed an Eagle Dance. Tur keys and their importance to the American Indian were learned as the students made their individual turkeys in Mrs. Lubbehusen’s room. Mrs. Hemphill guided stu dents as they drew the details of Indian dress on their Indian sil houettes. The need for clothing and its importance was practiced in Mrs. Duke’s room as students learned to weave. The story The Legend of the Bluebonnet was explained in Mrs. William’s room while students ate popcorn. The legend was further enhanced as the students traveled to Texas in Mrs. Whitley’s room to pick Bluebonnet flowers to put in their decorated Indian pottery. Archery skills were practiced along with hand signals in Mrs. Bynum’s room. The sounds of Indian tom toms could be heard from Mrs. Hurst’s room as communication techniques were taught.
