✏️ Indigenous People's Day Lesson
This editable lesson is designed to introduce students to Indigenous People's Day and provide information about its history and ongoing adoption process in the United States. Students will also use a map database to learn of local Indigenous lands.
Lesson Organization:
- Background knowledge: What have you heard? What do you know?
- Information about the term "Indigenous" versus "Indian"
- Information about Columbus Day and colonization
- History on the name change from Columbus Day to Indigenous People's Day
- Map of and information about U.S. cities and states that have adopted the holiday
- Map of Indigenous lands in the United States
- Exploration of Indigenous lands local to students
Vocabulary words are underlined and differentiated in pink boxes throughout the lesson. (Parts of speech are not included because I had my students practice identifying them based on the definition, but can be added if you wish.)
Vocabulary Words:
- Outdated
- Colonists
- Genocide
- Propose
- Debate
- Gradually
- Reside
Ideas for extending the lesson: pause and reflect moments, what do you wonder/notice in the photos or maps?, written reflections, what I learned (post lesson), what I still wonder
