RESEARCH and CELEBRATE in NOVEMBER: NATIVE AMERICAN HERITAGE MONTH
Interactive Research Calender
November 2022
Throughout November, we celebrate the ancestry and time-honored traditions of Indigenous people in North America. It is important to note that there are over 500 Indigenous nations in the United States. Each of these nations are distinct and highly individualistic. All nations have their own language, which many continue to speak. While there are similarities, the values and beliefs are uniquely applied in each individual nation/tribe.
Please join us here each day to learn more.
Using the link below, submit your classroom’s answers each day throughout November to be entered in a drawing for a class prize.
