Answer: Plains Indians

The Plains Indians are a Native American group who has traditionally lived in the Great Plains and the Canadian Prairies. Some well-known tribes are the Cheyenne, Comanche, Lakota, Kiowa and Apache.

These groups were nomadic or semi-sedentary, and their movement patterns generally followed those of the buffalo. Their reliance on buffalo was huge, as they obtained most of their clothing and food from them. The American government encouraged the extermination of buffalo in the 19th century as a strategy to control the Plains Indians and force them into reservations.

The Homestead Act was a system of land grant passed in May 1862. It allowed any American, including freed slaves, to claim up to 160 free acres of federal land. These grants were combined with the construction of the first transcontinental railroad (1893-69). Both events greatly altered the territory of the Plains Indians, forcing them to relocate.

The Homestead Act, the mass killing of buffalo, and the completion of the transcontinental railroad are most closely associated with the decline of the plain Indians.  

<u>Further Explanation:- </u>

<u>It is known by everyone about the sad story of demise of Buffalo during the later stages of nineteenth century and it is often used as a morality which explained the extinction of animals which were wooly as well as brought decline to the population of Great Plains from Native America</u>. Native Americans play major role in moral environmentalists who were hunting just buffalos they required and this went on till every last bit of buffalo that was left. The people or hunters who were Americans were oftenly seen photographed next to the piles of Buffalo robes.  <u>According to the interpretation of Isenberg, Native Americans were destructive forces that were sure to raise the controversy among Native Scholars and had been very open critic with respect to historians of new west for their portrayal of Indians along with their non-reciprocal relationship with respect to bison as well as Great Plains.     </u>

PERSONAL WRITING Imagine you are a student in a colonial town. Write three journal entries that describe a typical day in school
olga nikolaevna [1]

Day 1:

Today, I went to school. I woke up when the rooster awoke me, and I first did all my chores. Afterwards, I had breakfast and walked to school. The teacher made us copy some words on our slates, and spell them out loud. Everyone did really well. For lunch, I went to the river with my friends. The teacher did not assign homework, and we got to go home early.

Day 2:

Today my chores were more difficult, because we are beginning to get ready for winter. At school, the teacher made us memorize some poems, and I was asked to help the smaller children with the words they did not know. I also stayed after school to help the teacher clean the classroom.

Day 3:

Today was Friday, which meant that we would study science. Therefore, we went to the river, and we looked at the fish and the other animals that lived there. The teacher then sat us on a circle in the forest and she talked to us about how all nature is connected. We then had lunch and came back to the classroom. Once in class, we wrote a paragraph about winter, and then we went home.
