6) Find the individual tribe that you
have been studying.
Now it’s
time to add your pictures! You want
people to be able to look at your map and determine which types of crops,
animals, and habitats your Native Americans
planted, hunted, used or lived in. Using
your research book on Native Americans for information your job is to use the
computer software to locate the appropriate “stamps” or pictures and then place
them onto the map. In order to do this
you need to:
v
Click
on the gray “draw” tab in the top left hand corner (Behind the current tab you
are on right now which says “find”)
v
Find
the purple column of icons going down the left side of the map. Go to the bottom of the column and click on
the picture of a stamp.
v
From
the menu at the top select “animals” (it should already be there), and choosing
animals that your tribe either used and/or hunted click and drag them into the
area where your tribe lives. Don’t
overdue it! Choose only a few of each
animal and spread the stamps out in the correct area. For example, if your tribe hunted buffalo
then select a few buffalo, and click and drag them into the area where your
tribe lives.
v
Continue
adding stamps from the “habitat” and “crops” menus. (You get these from the same menu you
selected the “animals” from.)
After you
have labeled your map be sure to print it.
To do this choose “file” and scroll down to “print”
