The map we are going to create in class shows the general regions these people lived.

Starting a MAPFirst, give your map a title. Every good map has a title which indicates the subject matter the map is showing. You should label your map with the following title:

FIVE HISTORIC TRIBES This title tells the viewer what type of information the map is going to be showing.

Starting a MAPAfter giving the map an appropriate title, you need to create a space for a clearly labeled LEGEND. (Remember, a legend is the key to the map which shows you what the colors and symbols on the map represent. )

Five Historic Tribes LEGENDA legend is the key to the

map. Put all colors and symbols in here.

Choose a color you want to use to represent the first tribe PAIUTE. Make a space for it in your legend.

To outline the PAIUTE region, FIRST find the middle of the Southern border of the state and make a dot or a line.
