8 Cultural Regions (9/22-9/23)

Section 3 of Lesson 1 (The First Americans) discussed how the Native Americans adapted to their environments. The formation of cultural regions was also discussed. According to historians, 10 cultural regions once existed in North America. For Tuesday (9/22) and Wednesday (9/23), students will explore 8 of these cultural regions.
