1. The students will work in groups of four, and each
group will select a Native American tribe located in North Carolina.
The students will use the Internet to find information concerning these
tribes such as their name, religion, food, art, region found, etc. |
|
2. Students will determine if the information they have
found is authentic and reliable. |

their Native American tribe along with a biography page citing the sources
they used to complete this assignment. |

| Unique Learner: |
By allowing the students to work in groups, I think this will give
the unique learners an opportunity to shine as they can collaborate with
their peers for any questions they may have. I would like to make
some of these students group leaders as well to encourage them to take
risks and build their self-confidence. |

|
| Assessment: |
The students and I will design a rubric that I will use to assess their
paper, resources, and presentations. |
