What we need to know:
origins – which groups were here before the explorers came (Lipan Apache, Karankawa, Caddo, Jumano)
similarities & differences between the tribes
describe the regions they lived in
compare how they lived before the explorers came with after
how they met their needs-farming, hunting, trading
how they governed themselves (Caddo, Comanche)
Questions to answer:
Where did they come from and where did they live in Texas?
What was the region like where they lived (landforms, natural resources)?
How did they meet their needs (food, shelter, clothing)?
What was their government like? Who was in charge? Who made decisions and how did they make them?
What did they do for fun?
How did they live before the explorers?
How did that change after the explorers?
Were they like most of the other tribes? How were they alike/different?
