Learn what the futures of the Eastern Shoshone and Northern Arapaho tribes are, and how the tribes will retain their culture and tradition while preparing to move into the future? In the accompanying lesson plan (found in the Support Materials) students will understand the importance of education and perservation of the culture.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

Students will demonstrate an understanding about the importance of education and preservation of the language and culture among the Northern Arapaho and Eastern Shoshone Tribe from the past, present, and future.
Students will learn about the Federal Indian Policy to civilize Native Americans through the establishment of Native American Boarding Schools incorporating key vocabulary words.
Students will learn about how the practice of forced assimilation contributed to the diminished use of the Shoshone and Arapaho people’s lifestyle, languages, and traditions.
Students will discuss the development of Indian boarding schools in the United States and Wyoming.
Students will analyze the differences between the early educational experiences of the Native American and non-native students.
Students will examine the importance of education as a value that the Shoshone, Arapaho, and non-native communities share.
Students will consider how Native American students and non-native students can learn from each other to dispel the myths and stereotypes that exist in contemporary society.
Students will learn why oral traditions are important.
Students will understand why respect for elders is important in the tribe.
Students will gain an awareness of why traditional dancing and singing is important to traditions and culture.
Students will explore the significance of the buffalo to the Shoshone people living on the Wind River Reservation.
Students will learn that through traditional concepts of understanding, the Shoshone people, as well as many other Plains tribes, were able to survive through their sustenance on the buffalo.
Students will discuss the relationship that Native American people have with the buffalo (i.e., spiritual, sustenance, etc.) and how oral traditions play a critical role in the preservation of Native ways of knowing.

In this lesson, students will watch video #6 - "Preserving the Ways: Culture & Tradition." In the
previous videos, students were introduced and learned about the establishment of the Wind
River Reservation, why Native American History should be taught, the Northern Arapaho Tribe,
the Eastern Shoshone Tribe, and tribal government. This next video focuses on the importance
of education amongst the two tribes yet realizing the need to stay connected to their culture and
traditions. After viewing the video, students will create an arts and craft project (dreamcatcher),
write a"I am" poem, and participate in one of many social dances amongst all tribes across the
Nation.

Native American history has often been shared through a westernized lens. As a result, an
accurate depiction of the events that occurred between the early European settlers and indigenous
peoples are limited to only one perspective.
This lesson plan will allow learners from diverse backgrounds the opportunity to explore the
federal Indian policies discussed in Video Module 6 - Preserving The Ways, Culture and
Traditions.
In order to understand the contemporary issues that the Shoshone and Arapaho people face, it is
important to gain a perspective of the underlying factors that contribute to these issues.

In this lesson students will learn about the Arapaho tribe on the Wind River Reservation and why
it is important to retain their culture through history, traditions, songs, ceremonies, dances,
language (revitalization).

This five-minute video introduces students to the findings of the Kerner commission, a panel of experts President Lyndon Johnson convened to make policy recommendations following the protests, violence and disorder that occurred in over 150 cities in 1967. The commission recommended a series of sweeping changes, including reforms in policing tactics and efforts to reduce urban poverty. But Johnson largely ignored the findings of the study. Useful in helping students make connections between the 1960s and today, the video sets up an engaging class discussion on race, poverty and policing.

Content Advisory: This video includes footage of police violence. This resource contains additional material that may be sensitive for some students. Teachers should exercise discretion in evaluating whether this resource is suitable for their class.
