This story is fairly bland, but can give children an idea about Native American culture. It just basically summarizes what a Powwow is and why Native Americans do it.

I would like a book like this to show children that Native American culture is still alive today. In my class, the students who are Native American would be able to feel accepted in the class. I would probably send the book home to Native American families to assess what they think of the book first though.

I would be able to do cultural games and art. I would have Native American families show and talk to us about their culture and possibly help us do a few art projects. I would for sure do feathered head bands and maybe beaded necklaces or key chains.
