The Field Trip at Waterloo Village

Last week we went to Waterloo Village. We learned about longhouses and mostly about Native Americans. We also got to play games that they played. For example, they had nothing to do with their corn cobs so they would make hoops to throw through for spear throwing practice. Also they would all get sick at times. For example, if you had a cold you would go to a doctor like the kid ones today and if you were really sick you would go to the shaman. At one time the European people came and had lots of sicknesses and when they traded they gave the Native Americans the sicknesses.  It killed 50% of that tribe! Our favorite part was when we tried to make a fire. That was our trip to Waterloo Village.

Book report project

This is our last book report that we are doing for the year. We have to make a board game of the book we read. You have to include, Playing cards, and directions. Then when we bring back the book report we will get to share them with the class and play them. I am very excited to play the games that other people did.

A Field Trip to Waterloo

Yesterday we went on a field trip to Waterloo Village  these are some of the things we did there.One  of the thing we did was to go to the long  house and learn about how the  Native Americans lived,and how they dried their food. We also learned that they made  their clothing out of deer skin. At Waterloo  we  also  got to play a game that the Lenape people would play. In the game you would have to throw a corn  cob into a hoop and  to win you would have to get it through the hoop  and into the basket. This was a training for hunting. Another thing we learned was  when the children got there names they had to survive 5 winters before they got a name. This was because most children died before they could survive those  5 winters. Our field trip was great if you ask  us .
