Have
students listen
to the recording and complete the Document Analysis Worksheet. Then
have students discuss their findings.
Why
were they baskets made – for what purpose? Who used them? Where?
When? What does that tell us about life in North Florida at that
time? What else can we learn about life in North Florida at this
time from these recordings?
