As we learn about the Native Americans that were in Texas, each student will pick
from a list of possibilities and go in depth with that tribe. You will need to find AT
LEAST one other source than the textbook for information on your tribe. You will
create a project from the list below to decide how you would present your tribe in
depth to the class. As you plan your project, make sure you meet the requirements of
the rubric below. DUE September 29, 2016
