Here are a few resources to use at home to ensure that all students have an opportunity to continue learning! I will be posting BOTH through Google Classroom AND PDFs or Word documents of the same assignments here on this site to accommodate both those comfortable with online learning AND those who may prefer to print out work to complete offline. Just remember that the resources will be the same in both places and that work is being done for enrichment only.

Unit 10 articles cover BOTH Native American Cultures AND European Exploration.
Native American (Indigenous) Cultures
Khan Academy Native American Societies before European contact (Khan Academy should have sent you a link inviting you to join Khan Academy IF you are currently enrolled in one of my Google Classroom classes but you CAN just watch the videos at the link above and follow the directions below)
Watch the following videos via the link above. While you watch, create a graphic organizer that records what you learn about each of the regional societies – Native Americans of the Southwest, West, Northeast, Southeast, and the Plains. When you have completed your organizer and the practice activities that go along with the videos upload the document with your graphic organizer (either as a word or pdf attachment OR a photo of the document you created by hand).
This can be done via Khan Academy, Google Classroom OR at home on paper as long as you have online access to watch the videos.
