Indigenous Native American Dwellings

These Native American shelter posters not only decorate your social studies classroom but help to reinforce your early American lesson plans as well.

This resource focuses on 11 different types of Indigenous Native American dwellings historically found on the land that became the United States. Geography greatly affected the types of dwellings that were built. Students are asked to consider how climate and the resources found geographically influenced the design of the various dwellings.

This resource is a non-editable PDF and includes:
