Iroquois Day 2017

     Today, we spent a day at the main campus to kick off our Iroquois unit.  The wise leaders from Earth Spirit took the students through three stations: Iroquois games and folklore, Culture through artifacts and Hunting Lodge.  It was great to see students engaged in competitive play, inquisitive thinking and good old-fashioned hard labor!  The students seemed to enjoy themselves and learn a lot!  Stay tuned for more pictures and our Hunting Lodge acrostic poems!

Learning some Iroquois folklore with "Grizzly.

Students were anxious to share their ideas.

The Iroquois woman played the violent game of Double Ball.

Mr. Scott always amazes and informs us with authentic artifacts. 

We made delightful music together. 

Those who didn't have an Iroquois instrument,
 used their own!

We were excited to head outside to build an authentic hunting lodge.

Mr. John gave us some background on the hunting needs. 

This was the lodge before we did our leaf work.

The students were terrific workers!
