First Peoples of Alberta

Miss. Shoults needs your help! She has recently got in an accident and has forgotten all about the different Indigenous groups in
Alberta. You and one other classmate must help her remember one of those groups. In order for Miss. Shoults to remember you have
been given the task to create a presentation about your assigned group. To do this you will be creating a physical representation
(google slides, poster) to present to the class and Miss. Shoults. Within your presentation, you need to show that you used at least 1
one the resources that have been provided. (You can also use more!). Within your presentation you must also talk about:

 Where the group lived

 What the group ate
 What language they spoke
 How they moved around
 At least 3 other fun facts about the group that you can find

You have been given 2 days to help Miss. Shoults remember before she forgets forever! You must not forget your presentation must
be organized, your facts must be accurate and written in your own words, and you must include where you got your information in
alphabetical order.
