Ways to Teach, Ways to Learn: Traditional Native American Games in the Classroom Free Teacher Workshop (Middle School)

Did you know that many of the team sports we know of today originated from Native American peoples? Traditional games have been used to redistribute wealth, show generosity, settle disputes, build intelligence and intuition, teach science and spirituality, and reaffirm relationships between people.

Join Lee Lomayestewa (Hopi), Research Assistant for the Hopi Tribe’s Cultural Preservation Office, Museum of Indian Arts and Culture and National Museum of the American Indian staff, for a hands-on, informative, and practical way to experience indigenous forms of teaching and learning. Learn about the neuroscience and value of traditional Native games, play games, see MIAC’s games and objects, and apply related content and new resources in your classroom!
