Grade 7 Native Americans
Big6 Research Model

Task - Create a presentation that tells the history of one Native American group. At the end of the presentation, you and your partner should include your answer to the following question - What do you think was the greatest hardship for this group and why? Use a graphic organizer to plan your thoughts before you start your research.

Information Seeking Strategies - Where is a good place to look for information? Your resources should include the encyclopedia, non-fiction books,  Infotrac, and the Library of Congress American Memory website.

Locate and Access -

• The encyclopedias and a reference series on Native Americans are located behind the check out desk.
  
• I also recommend that each group visit the Library of Congress American Memory web page.  You will find many interesting pictures here.
• Infotrac
  

• What did you learn from working on this webquest?
• Did you do your best work on this presentation?
• Did you work well with your partner?
• Is there something you could do better on your next presentation?
• What was your favorite part of this presentation?
