\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\u00a0One sweet Native American that took several minutes with the girls explaining all the details of her outfit from the otters, knots on her blanket, family crest, leather, beads and so much more.\u00a0 Very fascinating!<\/p>\n

The girls have been learning about the Native American Indians in their Social Studies class at school.\u00a0 It has been a lot of fun discovering neat details specifically about the Native Americans located in South Carolina.\u00a0 They have even done extra credit activities such as building a Wattle & Daub and Longhouse<\/a> which were used by the Native Americans in SC as well.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Hagood Mill<\/p>\n

While I was online I discovered that Hagood Mill in Pickens, South Carolina was doing a Native American celebration.\u00a0 We decided it would be a great opportunity for the girls to learn more and experience first hand a little piece of the Native American culture as well as the mill history in SC.\u00a0\u00a0 The only problem is we already had multiple events already on the schedule for that Saturday!\u00a0 Thankfully, the event was only a few miles away and we were still able to squeeze in most of the events.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Cherokee “Duck & Dive” War Dance from their war in SC.\u00a0 The “Duck & Dive” was named after the way they fought with the the English ducking and diving as the muskets would be fired then re-loaded.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Karlie and Brina standing on one of the mill stone that used to be used in South Carolina’s old mills<\/p>\n

The girls have been working very hard in their school activities, but\u00a0 it is always a lot of fun when we find extra ways to help them have a more interactive experience because it helps the information come alive for them (and makes it stick).\u00a0 This was a great event and will be very valuable as they continue to study the Native Americans at school.\u00a0 We talked to a lot of different people, watched demonstrations, Native American dances, items they used, and a lot more.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Putting their hand prints on the white horse, they loved this activity<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Rainbow hand print horse, very colorful.\u00a0 The horse was a good sport! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Native American meal cooked over a fire, complete with mushroom soup, fish, venison, chicken, potatoes, and corn.\u00a0 It looked smelled delicious!<\/p>\n
