We are also learning about Native Americans this week. Today, we made this wigwam out of a construction paper base with torn up brown paper bags glued over it. When it dried, we cut a hole in the top for the smoke and we cut a door out. It was actually hard work and tried both of us in patience, but it turned out pretty nice and we DID have fun! Tomorrow we are making a teepee (much easier) complete with twigs and watercolor for the outside!
Friday we are planning to visit the historical society where they have life-sized teepees and wigwams that you can walk into and get more of a feel for how the Native Americans actually lived! I can't wait...I love field trips! Oh, yeah, and so do the kids LOL!
