Coast Salish Longhouses – Part 2

Posted by in Art, Practicum, Social Studies

For the remainder of the week, my students built their own Coast Salish longhouses.  We used shoeboxes, tissue paper, wood, cedar, gravel, Popsicle sticks, paper, and burlap.  Below are pictures of them working and their final products.
