Remote Learning - Plains Indians' Beliefs and Way of Life - GCSE American West

Ideal for remote home distance learning, sickness, self isolation, school closure or revision - Plains Indians’ Beliefs and Way of Life - GCSE American West. This lesson begins with a starter looking at various images to introduce the topic. The students are then required to use the internet to define certain key terms including Counting coup, nomadic and the Great Spirit. Next there is a link to an 11 minute long video which helps them with the longer task. The students are required to produce a series of paragraphs covering a selection of bullet points including the importance of the horse, hunting the buffalo, Native American homes, society, spirituality and war.

This is a remote learning resource which can be emailed out or set on Google Classroom or similar platforms. I simply copy the information over into a Google Doc on Classroom so the students can then type their responses straight onto the sheet. All the information needed and links to videos are included to help them understand.

Enjoy!
