Native American Cultural Regions Lapbook/INB for Upper Elementary

Students color, cut, and glue pieces onto a file folder to create this lapbook that can be used for a variety of reasons - review, assessment, or as a study guide.

Students research natural resources, climate, landforms and water features, tribes, food, clothing, shelter, and other interesting facts (or use pre-made slips) for each of the included seven regions. I have included a template so you can adapt the regions to your curriculum. I have also included options so that you can differentiate for your students, including a full-color version if you want to quickly make an example.

Cultural Regions Addressed:
Northwest Coast
California-Intermountain
Plateau
Southwest
Great Plains
Eastern Woodlands
Southeast

Included in the ZIP file:
Two pages of assembly instructions with pictures
Thirteen pages of masters for the students with multiple options for each page (each student will need four to seven pages depending on the option you choose)
Answer key
Editable PowerPoint file - blank pockets, blank research slips, blank map with key, blank Important Terms and Cultural Regions for cover

I used Social Studies Alive! America's Past Chapter 3 - American Indian Cultural Regions (for fifth grade) as a guide for the concepts and terms I included.
