?Hey guys! We are learning about Native American tribes and European Explorers. My teacher asked me to reflect on the following questions.
A) What is something that we talked about so far that you already knew?
1) Well, I did not know much about the Algonquin, but I kind of figured that they used spears. My class already learned about the Inca and Aztec, so I already HAD to know something there.
B) What is something new that you learned so far?
2) I learned the most awesome, coolest, most amazing thing ever. THE ALGONQUIN MADE MAPLE SYRUP!!!!!! Isn't that great? They also made dream catchers and stuff out of birch bark.
C) How did your "jigsaw" group work together as a team (when you filled out your Counsel Document?)
3) Well, we all knew about the Incas and Aztec but we helped each other with the other tribes. We argued that the Iroquois were not the only tribe out of the five that believed in the Three Sisters. Some of us knew about a different tribe and would fill someone else's tribe.
My teacher also said to when I'm are finished answering those questions, to think about this statement:
In 1492, the Americas were basically “empty” continents
waiting to be “discovered.”
What did I think about that? Comment thoughtfully.
First of all the Americas were not empty, in fact, there were many people there. And the Native Americans discovered the Americas. And even then, there were animals before the Natives got there
When I am finished, I must read my "jigsaw group"'s posts and comment about them.
I hope you thought my post was good, fellow "jigsaw group" members!
