Literature is always more meaningful when the reader is engaged with the story through interaction and understanding. Giving the student a solid background about the author and the Literary Elements also helps the student comprehend the time period, the characters, and the author of the book. In each lesson the students will engage with discussion, be introduced to vocabulary words--(the vocabulary words will be derived from the book), create a hands-on-project to engage all of their senses during course work, and do a reading activity. Throughout the course the students will learn: American History, Geography, Language Arts, Social Studies, Science, Art, and how to use research skills. The students will read 2 chapters of the book prior to each class, (except the first and last class), to help enrich the discussion and allow the class time to be wisely used to dig a little deeper and develop the students comprehension skills and vocabulary. The students can read prior to the first class, but it is not necessary. At the beginning of each lesson the students will review the highlights for each chapter through discussion over the chapters read prior to the class. Teacher Dayna will use the 4 types of learning to help engage each child, because learning for each child is an individual experience and in a classroom setting where there are multiple students---Each of these types of learning will be incorporated throughout the lesson plans----Visual, Auditory, Reading/Writing, and Kinesthetic. The projects in each class are not meant to trivialize the history of the book, but are used to help the students engage kinesthetically to deepen their academic understanding through activities which reflect the different arts, tools, and animals of the time period. In the worksheet packet the teacher will provide a list of added supplies needed to complete each project---these supplies will be many items you may have around the house now or can be easily and inexpensively acquired. ***Parents, please do not worry, this class will not cancel due to small class size. Below is a guide to each week's Lesson Plan: Week 1--Learn about the parts of a book -Learn about the author of the book--Laura Ingalls Wilder -Literary Elements--Setting and Main Characters -In this class we will do some reading and discussion of chapter 1 together. -Geography Activity--Map of Wisconsin and the United States -Vocabulary List introduced for Chapters 1- 2 -Within this book there are some misrepresentations of the Native American in this time period that will be brought to light and discussed in the settling of America Week 2 -Review parts of a book, Literary Elements, Geography, and review vocabulary words with game. -Introduce Native American History -Discuss Chp 1-2 -History of the Native Americans in the state of Wisconsin -Treaty of Prairie du Chien of 1825 -Black Hawk War of 1832 -Color the Great Seal of the Menominee Nation and discuss its meanings. -Make a small piece of pottery with clay dough--one of the Menominee Indian art forms is clay pottery -Begin the process of homemade butter -Introduce the new vocabulary list for 3-4 Week 3 -Review Week 1 and week 2 -Play a vocabulary game to review the vocabulary words-(alphabetical order and syllables) -Discussion for chapters 3-4 -Compare and Contrast homes of the past and present -Discuss the owl story in chapter 3 and make a sack owl puppet -Introduce Vocabulary list for Chapters 5-6 Week 4 -Review week 3 -vocabulary game-(Definition or Word) -Discuss chapters 5-6 -Discuss a family tree and why it is important to know your family tree -Discuss why a lantern would be an important tool to have during this time in history -Make a lantern*****students will need prepare the pattern in class and after class with a parent's help complete the lantern.

In the 1860's the Ingall's were part of the pioneers, who were illegal settlers and established their homes on the Native American's homeland. We will discuss how this is not appropriate behavior to take something that does not belong to you. This concept of ownership is clear even to student's of a young age. In the beginning of the book Laura says that she lives in the Big Woods with no one living around her, but we will discuss that as a young child Laura did not see other people, but that there were actually others, the Native Americans, that lived in the Big Woods near Laura and her family. As is expressed in the Outschool Policy for class listings the class will be unbiased, inclusive of all learners, and intentionally be designed to represent diverse viewpoints fairly and accurately. During Week 1 we will discuss the misrepresentations of the Native American, racial slurs, and harmful stereotypes within the historical perspective of the pioneer era. Also, on page 53 Pa refers to a story from his childhood when he was pretending he was "a wild hunter, stalking the wild animals and the Indians." This in its context expresses racism. Since this is a sentence used early in the book and discrimination of the Native American is a part of American History; discrimination against the Native American will be addressed in the second week of class discussion. The student's will learn about the Native American tribes which lived specifically in and around Wisconsin at this time in history: Menominee; Sauk and Fox. They will also learn about the Treaty of Prairie du Chien of 1825, The Black Hawk War of 1832, and The Homestead Act of 1862, which were all historical events that impacted this area of America. All discussions will be handled in an age appropriate manner. In the "Course Description" for this class I have provided a Lesson Plan which provides a breakdown of the information to be taught each week. I encourage if you have more questions to refer to the material found in the "Sources" section below where I have posted websites and articles which provide relevant information to this class content or the teacher can be contacted directly.

I have read this specific book multiple times with students ages 6-12 . This book is a Historical Fiction book and even though the primary focus of the book is the lifestyle of the author Laura Ingalls Wilder, the class will look at some of the historical events that surround this time period. This story was written in a time when it was common to discriminate against Native Americans. To prepare for this class I have researched the Menominee and Sauk and Fox tribes which are located in the Wisconsin area as well as the discrimination they endured. Refer to the parental guidance section or the course description for more details of specific historical events to be discussed.
