Description: Help students go beyond memorization and truly understand the impact of the Dawes Act with this student-led, inquiry-based activity. Students take an active role in analyzing how U.S. government policy affected Native American communities, land ownership, and cultural identity. Through guided collaboration, students investigate the purpose, implementation, and consequences of the Dawes Act—then teach and discuss their findings with peers.
