American Indians


We are doing a unit study on American Indians right now. We are primarily concentrating on Cherokee and Cree right now because of our heritage. I would also like to study the Indians from the New Mexico area because that is where I am from. If you have any American Indian information you would like to share with me, please let me know. Today we learned what the meaning of our names sound like in Cherokee. It was extremely interresting. If you click on the links below, you can search for the meaning and hear the correct pronunciation. Here is the phonetic way of saying them:




Paige means servant: A tsi na tla i


Brooke as Brook: U de ya s di s di
