Hello! Welcome to 3Sp! This week we had a Wampanoag person come to teach us about their culture. The Wampanoag’s name was Phillip. He first taught us about animal skins and how his ancestors used them. He said that “deer skin was very useful back then.” He had animal skins like deer, skunk, and beaver and much more. He said that skunks are very good for food and how they caught skunks without getting sprayed. He said they would put a trap down and make it walk on the trap with food on it and the skunk would be in the air. You're thinking how does that help? Skunks have their place where they spray attached to their legs! So if they’re in the air they can’t spray!
Phillip said “beaver skin is perfect to hold a baby in it because it’s soft and waterproof so if a baby spills or drools it will be dry in no time! And all you need to do is bend it correctly and done.” They also made games with deer scraps like bones and a little bit of deer skin. We all had fun during the visit and i hope you learned about the Wampanoag visit this week.
