We concluded our discussion of tribal governments today, which we had begun yesterday. To help Jack connect to recently acquired information, I asked him to read a passage entitled, "The Mound Builders and the Seminole," from ReadWorks. It discussed how some groups of Native Americans have descended from the Mound, who got their name because they built towns using heaps of dirt formed into flat-shaped mounds atop of which they placed buildings. We learned that members of the Seminole Nation are an example of a surviving Native American nation of Mound builders. Jack learned that they live in present-day Florida and Oklahoma, and I pointed out how many nearby communities have the word Seminole in their name in efforts to facilitate an even greater connection to the lands on which we live here in Florida. Jack then was prompted to answer 6 multiple-choice questions about the article. His responses indicated good comprehension of the material.
