Chap+1+Sec+2+-+Modern+Life

In this article we are again seeing Native Americans adapting to their environment. For example the American Indian Center also known as the AIC offers programs and cultural events. Also to make money they had the advent of Indian casinos. Finally they improved graduation rates by running their own schools. This shows Native Americans are still adapting in life.

READ: Modern Life article from U.S. News & World Report from 10/4/04



PROCESS: In our study of Native Americans before and during the time of Columbus, we witnessed them adapting their ways of life to their environmental surroundings. How they structured their tribes, their types of dwellings, and their food source were all determined by the physical environment. **One could argue that in this article we are again seeing the Native Americans adapting to their environment. Make an argument for or against this statement.** Support your side of the argument with specifics from the article.

POST: Please post your argument for or against the statement above by Monday 9/16 8:00 AM I agree that the Native Americans are adapting to their environment. The children are getting a education and they are getting jobs. They would move around for better jobs and education. They also lived in urben places, cities, and modern places. They were tring to act like normal people like we are. I would say that the Native Americans are adapting to their environemtn and the moder life.
