This biography research project is one of my most creative Native American Heritage Month activities for middle school and high school students to learn about influential individuals during November. The completed projects can not only be used as an informative tool but also as purposeful classroom decor like Native American Heritage Month Bulletin Boards or hallway posters.
Take back your time with this LOW PREP project, which contains over 30 pages of instructional materials that will help guide teachers and students through this activity. Another bonus for teachers is that this product contains a detailed rubric, strong and weak teacher models, a suggested list of Native American and Indigenous individuals, and a list of suggested websites that students can use for research.
