There are numerous Tribes, Nations and Bands within the nine federally recognized Tribes in Oregon. As distinct sovereign nations, there is variation among these Tribes with each having their own cultures, ways of being, lifeways and languages.  \nStudents learn that Oregon has nine federally recognized Tribes that have been here since time immemorial. Through examining tribal seals and playing bingo, students are introduced to the Tribes of Oregon and practice visual recognition while learning that each Tribe has its own unique identity represented in its official seal.  \nBackground for Teachers  \nThis lesson focuses on the Essential Understandings of History, Identity, and Since Time Immemorial. Since before anyone can remember, tribal nations have had their own unique cultures and deep, ancestral connections to the land. There are nine federally recognized Tribes in Oregon. Each is made up of numerous smaller Tribes, Nations and Bands. These Tribes have been present on the land in Oregon since time immemorial, predating written history and colonial records. This concept is fundamental to Indigenous worldviews, oral traditions and legal systems because it emphasizes Native Tribes'continuity, stewardship, and sovereignty over their lands long before external settlers arrived.  \nThese ideas are often expressed in tribal seals. They are typically created through collaborative processes involving tribal councils, community members and artists. Tribal seals often incorporate meaningful symbols that represent the Tribe's identity and connection to their land, traditions and values. Each element is carefully chosen to tell part of the Tribe's story—from natural features like mountains and rivers to cultural symbols like sacred animals or traditional activities.  \nSTANDARDS  \nOregon English Language Arts Standards  \n• 3 K. RL.1: With prompting and support, ask and answer questions about key details in a text.  \n• K.SL.1: Participate in collaborative conversations with diverse partners about kindergarten topics and texts .  \nMATERIALS  \nWhat materials are needed for students to engage in this activity?  \n• PowerPoint presentation  \n• Bingo Markers (beans, chips)  \n• Container to draw seals from  \n• Print outs of six varieties of bingo  cards (color if possible)  \n• Seals cut out from one card for bingo container  \nConsiderations for Teachers  \nPractices  \nWhile teaching this lesson, the following principles can help guide your decision-making and engagement with students.  \n• Focus on teaching the Essential Understandings through discussions of the nine federally recognized Tribes .  \n• When sharing content with students, address the “why” not just the “what.”  \n• Highlight the strengths and struggles of  \nKEY WORDS and IDEAS  \n• Time Immemorial: So long ago that no one can remember when it started.  \n• Tribe: A group of Native American people.  \n• Seal: A special picture that represents a group.  \nOregon’s Indigenous peoples today while also acknowledging their history and tradition.  \n• Ensure your teaching practices are accessible and appropriate for Native and nonNative students.  \n• Be clear that traditional ecological knowledge is not a historical artifact but continues to be practiced and developed today.  \n• Avoid generalizing across all","cbCaicxkBqzg5bV4","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaicxkBqzg5bV4","pdf",250465,"English","# Overview\n## Essential Understandings and Learning Outcomes\n## Essential Questions and Time Required\n# Background for Teachers\n## Tribal Nations, Seals, and Identity\n# Standards, Materials, and Key Terms\n## Oregon ELA Standards\n## Materials\n## Key Words and Ideas\n# Assessment and Success Criteria\n# Lesson Activities\n## Opening (10 minutes)\n## Step 1 and Step 2","[{\"question\":\"Who are the nine federally recognized tribes of Oregon in this lesson?\",\"answer\":\"Students learn that Oregon has nine federally recognized tribes.
