ojibwa Indians

We have been studying Native Americans this year.....A lot....so it was quite a treat when our local school had an Ojibwa Indian come to the school to work with the fifth graders for the week. He did a presentation for the public Thursday night.....Fantastic man...great stories....a lot of history, and he also brought tables of materials for folks to look at including an stone ax from the 1700's and models ....also suggested some videos that depict Native American culture. I had as much fun as the girls, and now they are more interested than ever, and want to study more. Mabelle's number one Christmas gift was a pair of beaded moccasins lined with rabbit fur!!!!
