We live on an Indian Reservation. Our class is 100% Native American. We enjoy many of the same things you do like Nintendo 64, riding bikes, and playing basketball. We also enjoy dancing at Pow Wows. Pow Wows are Native American dances such as jingle dress, fancy shawl, grassdance, and traditional. Montana is the 4th largest states, but one of the fewest in people. We have more cows than people! --Mrs. Hoerner's Third Grade Class
