Is this a tribe? What is a tribe? Are you a member of anything that would be similar to a tribe? How do these people feel about each other? Why was this picture taken?



How are Native American children treated? How are they different from you? How are they the same? Do they go to school like you do? What do you think they study? What are their toys like? What are some questions you have about these children? What would you ask them?

What is the story of these Native Americans? Have people told myths about them? Why have they been misunderstood?
