History


 

1) Create a conversation starter about these learnings.

2) If we study history so that we don’t repeat the mistakes of the past, what do we need to learn and know from this time period?

3) Pose 3 questions from your learning to your fellow students to create further discussions.

From the PowerPoint, what was your reaction to the before and after photos of the Native children at the Boarding Schools?  

From the YAWP reading, Chief Joseph is broken. What is your reaction to his speech? Especially the last paragraph? 

How is the mindset of the Doctrine of Discovery (Google it) evident in westward expansion and the continued treatment of Natives? 

Chief Joseph on Indian Affairs (1877, 1879)
