The photo sequence from the slide and tape show It'll Be Gone When I'm Gone shows Lucreaty Clark making a white oak basket. This almost vanished skill is being kept alive by being passed down from basket maker to apprentice.

Students are asked to evaluate the photographs and determine whether they contain enough information to instruct a person in making a white oak basket.

• listen to an imaginative scenario in which they would need a white oak basket.
  
• evaluate the photographs to determine whether there is enough information to make a basket.
• write a brief statement expressing their opinion and giving supporting details.

Present students with the following scenario:

Imagine you were living by yourself in a cabin in the woods. You have found edible plants growing in a field a few miles away, but you need a basket to carry them back to your cabin.

You have an ax, a hammer, and a knife. White oak trees grow near your cabin. If you had just the pictures could you identify the white oak tree by it's leaves, and make a basket based on the information in the pictures.

Then have the students choose one of the following responses and write a three to five paragraph response with supporting detail.

• Yes, I could make the basket. Here's how I would do it.
• No, I would need more information. This is the information I would need.
