Fourth graders at the Alain L. Locke Magnet School for Environmental Stewardship just completed projects in the content areas.  To demonstrate their understanding of content from the Social Studies and Science curriculum they were asked to complete the following performance task:

As museum curators students will create a museum installation, for tourists, depicting the relationship Native Americans of NYS had with plants and animals-nature.
