Good Old Fashioned Rendezvous!

We have been learning about the lives of the Natives and the Pilgrims. We learned that when America was young they use to have Rendezvous where the Pilgrims and the Natives would meet together and sell and trade items.  They would also teach each other different crafts and games.  We were able to travel to different classrooms and do three different projects and we learned a Native American Stick Game. In Ms. Dingman's class the kids learned to weave a place mat.  In Ms. Johnson's room they learned about Kachina Dolls and how the Natives believed they have powers of nature. In our room they got to chose a Native name and they made a beaded medallion.  They got to make Pilgrim hats.  It was a super fun day of learning.
