Submitted by trisha.olsen on

The third graders at East Meadows Elementary have recently been learning about Native American Culture.  On Tuesday, November 20, each class performed a plays for their parents depicting the culture of Native Americans.  The plays they performed were:  “The Birth and Creation of the Corn God.” “A Possum’s Tail.”  “The Strongest One.”  “The Cannibal Monster--A Tlingit Legend” and “The Glusabe and Old Man Winter.”  Leading up to this culminating event, students had previously learned the meaning of legends, made pottery out of play dough, and created teepees out of paper.  All the students did a wonderful job!
