  The totem poles came out SO well! It was great to have the pictures and the character traits for each; it helped students be able to choose for themselves and their family members. Thank you!

  My students loved the personal approach their learning by creating a totem pole representing their families and/or loved ones. The totems look impressive on our bulletin board beside their writing.

  Easy to use and informative. My entire class loved learning about the attributes of different animals that are prized in the Native American culture. They were excited to select animals to represent themselves as they created their own totem poles and explained in writing why they select specific animals. This was a great activity to close out Native American History Month.

  The designs helped my student create their own totem poles. The writing component was geared more for children below 3rd grade, but I was still able to adapt and use. Thanks for sharing.
