Bark Painting

The students worked very hard at making a 'bark painting'.  Aboriginal 
peoples used bark as a medium to communicate a message.
The class studied aboriginal bark painting by looking online and they
discovered that most paintings were of animals.  They inferred that this was
because the people depended on animals for survival.  Not just for food, 
but for other things as well.  They used the furs to keep warm, the bones to make
tools and utensils, etc. Each student chose an animal and did a bark 
painting of their own.
