"So
many of the children in this classroom are Ho-Chunk, and it brings history
alive to them and makes it clear to the rest of us too that this isn't
just...Natives riding on horseback. There are still Natives in our society
today, and we're working together and living side by side. So we need to learn
about their ways as well." --Amy Laundrie, former Lake Delton Elementary
School fourth grade teacher
An
essential title for the upper elementary classroom, "Native People of
Wisconsin" fills the need for accurate and authentic teaching materials
about Wisconsin's Indian Nations. Based on her research for her award-winning
title for adults, "Indian Nations of Wisconsin: Histories of Endurance and
Survival," author Patty Loew has tailored this book specifically for young
readers.
"Native
People of Wisconsin" tells the stories of the twelve Native Nations in
Wisconsin, including the Native people's incredible resilience despite rapid
change and the impact of European arrivals on Native culture. Young readers
will become familiar with the unique cultural traditions, tribal history, and
life today for each nation.
Complete
with maps, illustrations, and a detailed glossary of terms, this highly
anticipated new edition includes two new chapters on the Brothertown Indian
Nation and urban Indians, as well as updates on each tribe's current history
and new profiles of outstanding young people from every nation.
