We were talking about Native Americans during the Revolution. Some allied with the British, and others with the Americans. So I pulled out some of my old Oklahoma resources, and show the class examples of people from many of the tribes that were forced to settle in that state. Students reproduced the portraits in pencil sketches. We're impressed with the final products. I asked students to "get to know" their assigned individual. I wanted them to wonder why their hair was fixed in a particular way, where they received their wrinkles, why they were dressed in a certain manner. We think we appreciate the Native People than we did before this project. Some of our pencil sketches will be on display at Thursday's family art walk.
