After the class last week on Indian education I had the opportunity to go watch the pow wow that was happening on campus the next day. One thing that caught my attention was all of the little children wearing old style clothes. I never really thought much about how these Indian children would learn about their own cultures. This is a perfect example the oral tradition that most Indian tribes had. You can't have your children read a book about their culture becuse they didn't have them back then. It also would be a great teaching tool to have your students attend a pow wow like that. With Some of the speakers and information they presented even I learned a lot and I have live in this state my whole life.
