Facts About Native Americans


Today I learned many new facts about Native Americans. To learn all these facts I read a few articles and watched a few videos.

I got the idea because my class and I had a writing test about them.  They lived 12,000 years ago in 1492. They lived in Alaska, Canada, North Carolina, and a few more spots. Today there are over five million Native Americans in the U.S. They eat salmon, fish, potatoes, pine nuts, and acorn flour. Native American of the North West built houses called plank houses on beaches. Women wear skirts and leggings. Native Americans grew corns, maze, beans, and squash. They built homes out of branches and animal skin. They believe in cultivation and preservation of natural resources.

I loved learning about Native Americans. If you know other facts about them, please let me know.

Ice skating - Michelle Kwan

I did a interesting research about Michelle Kwan. Michelle Kwan was born 1980 in Torrance, California. Her ethic is Chinese and her parents were from Hong Kong. Michelle Kwan started skating at the age of 5 and went to Ice Castle Training Center in Lake Arrowhead in California. She was 18 years old when she went to the Olympics games. Michelle Kwan liked to skate a lot. I think Michelle Kwan has good performance because she is calm and relaxed. I think Kwan is a good ice skater because she made it all the way to the Olympics games. I think i am a good ice skater because i am in Basic 6. I would like to learn how to ice skate like Kwan. I learned some interesting facts about Michelle Kwan and I would like to accomplish something like her.
