Description
In this lesson, students will read “Birth of the Haudenosaunee”, a story that describes the creation of the Great Peace and the Haudenosaunee nation. This lesson works toward providing students with a basic understanding of the Peacemaker and his journey to bring peace, as well as an introduction to some of the symbols of the Haudenosaunee culture. Students will interpret the symbols and be able to use those symbols to support their understanding of the text.
