Abstract

During this unit, students will learn about Native American tribes in Florida. To enhance student knowledge, teachers will either facilitate a virtual tour of the “First Peoples” Exhibit at the Orange County Regional History Center that was created by the pre-service teacher authors or organize a First Floridians field trip to the Orange County Regional History for their students. Using a variety of reading materials and resources, students will explore and compare various cultural aspects of the Timucua, Calusa, and Seminole tribes. As a culminating activity, students will apply their new knowledge of Native Floridians by creating roleplay presentations in collaborative groups.
