Native American
Diorama
Project
DUE: Monday, November 3, 2014
For the past few weeks in Social Studies, we have been studying various
Native American Regions.
In order for your child to show what they have learned, students will
complete a diorama project on their choice of one of the Native American
Regions we have studied. Students will also share their diorama with our
class, explaining the most important features of their region.
Choose one of the following locations:
The Eastern Woodlands Indians
The Northwest Coast Indians
The Arctic Indians
The Plains Indians
The Desert Southwest Indians
Instructions for diorama:
Using a shoe box, the diorama should show examples of the chosen tribe’s
lifestyle including:
Type of home, food, clothing, environment (including natural resources,
animals, crops, etc.)
Instructions for the oral report:
Students will present their diorama and explain the ways in which they
represented their Native American Region’s home, food, clothing and
environment. Students can use index cards to guide their presentation.
