Native Americans - What do we know? What do we wonder?

This week, we have worked with Upper School students to begin wondering and learning about the Native Americans. Please write at least one sentence explaining a new fact you learned. Also, write two sentences telling what you wonder about Native American life. What do you want to know about how tribes lived?
