Description
Students will be creating a personal wampum belt that depicts ideas embraced by the Haudenosaunee (peace, unity, consensus). Students will also be writing a paragraph that explains how the symbolism in their wampum belts reflects ideas in Thanksgiving Address and “Birth of the Haudenosaunee”. Today’s lesson will consist of a brief discussion with a partner to flesh out ideas followed by students working on their belts.
