SS1:
LEGENDS, LORE & LIVELIHOOD OF
WISCONSIN NATIVE PEOPLES
INSTRUCTOR(S):
Carol Knudson,
Kenosha Unified School District
GRADE LEVEL: K-4
This course will help to develop a
historical perspective of Wisconsin
tribes and tribal sovereignty.
Students will become familiar with
the characteristics, beliefs,
legends and sacred sites of the
Wisconsin tribes. We will
investigate ways to incorporate
diversity into curriculum studies by
focusing on Native People of
Wisconsin and develop an ability to
evaluate reading material and other
resources that pertain to Native
Americans for accuracy and to limit
biased view and stereotypes.
Participants will explore web sites,
literature, magazines and newspapers
to showcase a specific tribe or band
and to prepare a unit to incorporate
into their classroom curriculum.
This course is designed to prepare
thoughtful, knowledgeable, and
effective educators for a diverse
society.
