“Living” with the Cherokees A WebQuest for 3rd Grade (Social Studies) Designed by Elizabeth Dunlap elsie@uga.edu

Introduction | Learners | Standards |Student Page Introduction This WebQuest was developed for my EDIT 2020H class at the University of Georgia. The lesson involves students, in groups of four, researching information about the culture of the Cherokee Indians who lived in North Georgia before their removal in 1838. Then, using the information they found, the students would work together to create the “Living” section for the Cherokee Phoenix, the newspaper of the Cherokee Nation. Learners This WebQuest is designed for a third grade class. It would be helpful to use in the study of Native Americans in Georgia. For this project, the students would need to know how to use the Internet and Microsoft Word (or some other word processor program). They should also probably have at least a basic introduction to studying Native Americans.
