Impromptu Question on the Indians

Impromptu Student Question: How could we prove/know that Indians had been right here on this space that is now Lamar Middle School?

Students suggested the following.

**Someone old enough to remember Indians here could be a primary source.

**A journal written down about and passed down by the Indians telling they had gone through this space and possibly killed some mighty animals.

**You could actually study the Indians who had been around this area…you could ask your family about stories about Temple.

**Ask an Indian.

**Look underneath the building for footprints.

**You could prove it with any artifacts you could find on the site…e.g. arrowheads, pottery, their daily tools they used to survive.

I wonder if you have any further thoughts about this, students? Please answer in an anonymous comment.
