Indigenous project

We were asked to do a project about the Inuit people. In the project, we had all sorts of things. The Inuit are indigenous people who have inhabited North America’s and Greenland’s Arctic regions for thousands of years. Their traditional way of life, deeply rooted in hunting and gathering, has allowed them to thrive in one of the harshest environments on Earth. My part was to talk about what they traded.  The Inuit traded with Europeans, primarily exchanging furs, baleen, soapstone, and ivory for weapons, ammunition, tobacco, coffee, tea, sugar, and flour. we also had to write a bibliography. And also interesting facts like:

The Inuit made armor from walrus teeth.

Many Inuit people believed that the spirits of their ancestors could be seen in the Northern Lights.

A member of the Inuit people is called an Inuk.

Paths were marked with a pile of stones called an inuksuk to mark areas and keep from getting lost.

Kayaks, snowshoes, and snow goggles are all Inuit inventions. My favorite part of the project was the Inuit language. The Inuit language is Inuktitut.

Bar/Bat Mitzvah

When someone Jewish Is 12/13 they become the son/daughter of the commandments, which means they are responsible for their own. Tefilin and tallit are very important because God commanded the Jewish people to wear them. While learning about the bar/bat mitzvah what I found interesting is learning what is inside of the tefillin.
