I am a shawl dancer. There is a lot of dancing and drumming. The songs are called side step, swan dance, fish, snake and two-step. The drummers sing a flag song and we have to stand up until it is over. Then we dance and sit on the bleachers to watch the other dancers.
Powwows are the best part of the of our school day.
Our school has dress up pow-wows. Everyone stands up for the flag song. We have field trips like going to the sugar bush. We also have special guests. Before we go to the gym, we pass tobacco for the great spirit to help us.
