    Extractions: Nathan Turton Section J1 Native American Music and Dance Activity Grade Level: Lower Primary Lesson Time: 45 Minutes Subjects: Objectives Artistic Perception: The students will demonstrate keeping steady beat through practice exercises and stepping to the beat.

42. NMAI: Native American Dance
    Excerpt from native american dance Ceremonies and Social Traditions.  
    http://www.nmai.si.edu/books/dance_excerpt.html
    
    Extractions: Against this personal history, you will understand why I am especially pleased to introduce Native American Dance: Ceremonies and Social Traditions, There is an irony in publishing Native American Dance We hope that this book will contribute to the knowledge of these vital traditions, whose documentation, analysis, and preservation have received significantly less attention than they deserve. The topics and themes that follow derive from the particular interests and experiences of the authors. Rather than offering a comprehensive overview of Native American dance, the book intends to suggest the breadth and diversity of form and meaning in native dance traditions. W. Richard West, Jr., Director Charlotte Heth (Cherokee) Most Indian dance events are non-commercial and succeed with nothing but word-of-mouth advertising. Since admission is rarely charged, and parking is often free, and audience from outside the local community is usually neither cultivated nor expected. The best performers and leaders (or choreographers) rely on time-tested notions of space, time, music, dress, adornment, and steps to create dance events. Most dancers learn by participating from childhood and continuing throughout their lives. Nowadays, a few enroll in classes, take private or group lessons, or complete apprenticeships with master Indian dancers. Most either make their own dance apparel or commission it from friends and family, and few make any money practicing their art (figs. 2, 3).

43. NativeTech: Native American Beadwork ~ Meaning In Native American Life
    dances were often accompanied by throwing out wampum to onlookers. Beads were oftendistributed and redistributed during native american dance ceremonies.  
    http://www.nativetech.org/beadwork/beadwork.html
    
    Extractions: NATIVE AMERICAN BEADWORK Beads and Pendants of the Eastern Forest ~Meaning in Native American Life~ Beauty aside, wearing or presenting jewelry had many social, economic, political and religious implications for the Native Americans of the 1600ís in southern New England. Jewelry was used to show connection with a particular group. Beads validated treaties and were used to remember oral tradition, as well as for exchange and currency. There were many ritual aspects of beads and pendants used in ceremonies of dance, curing and sacrifice. Jewelry was also used in many ërites of passageí which individuals passed through in their lives. Personal Aesthetics: Native Americans in New England, especially young women, enhanced their dress with beads and pendants. Wampum beads were treasured possessions and elaborate types and large amounts of jewelry were worn. Native American women, however, were considered less vain than European women. Besides jewelry, beads decorated clothing or were inlaid into objects of wood for aesthetic beauty. Wampum inlaid wooden items included tomahawk handles, pendants, and native bread mixing bowls. Group Identity: Among many northeastern tribes, individuals acquired a spiritual totem at adolescence, often a mammal, snake, bird, claw, tooth or other animal part which was henceforth carried with that individual. Personal totems often coincided with those of a personís family, clan or society. Jewelry was a means for Native Americans to show they belonged to that group. A male catís head wrapped in trade cloth was one such totem. Totems were used in divination and to ensure opportunity. Native Americans wore beads and pendants to show ingredients in their social lives, economic and political concerns, and in beliefs of cosmology and religion.
