Teaches: Native American culture and history

CTR Review

This is a very simply designed but informative program about Native American history and culture. From an opening menu, kids can select from History, Museum, Red feather (films and description about life in the 1800s from a 12 year old boy's perspective), Activities, Reference, Native Americans today and the Plains world. Excellent film clips and photographs are used in each section, and the content is informative and interesting. Topics include those such as important Plains leaders, the significance of music and dance in the Plains culture, history and customs, and the European American and Native American conflict.
