Eastern Woodlands LITERACY · 5TH GRADE Name Date Read the passage, then answer the questions below. The Eastern Woodlands stretched from the Atlantic to the Mississippi and from the Great Lakes to the Southeast, a region of forest, rivers, and good soil. Nations there farmed maize, beans, and squash in cleared fields, hunted deer, and used bark and dugout canoes on an extensive river network. Housing varied: Haudenosaunee longhouses held several related families, while Algonquian-speaking nations built wigwams. The Haudenosaunee Confederacy of five and later six nations governed itself under the Great Law of Peace, with a council of chiefs chosen by clan mothers and decisions requiring consensus — a system some scholars argue influenced American ideas about federal union. Wampum belts of shell beads recorded treaties and laws and were read aloud to confirm agreements. Questions: 1 What crops did Eastern Woodlands nations farm? 2 How were chiefs chosen in the Haudenosaunee Confederacy? 3 What were wampum belts used for? www.littleactivity.com 5th Grade · Literacy
