To measure student understanding, I will have the students take home the Vocabulary and Study Guide found on page 22 of the Unit Resources. Explain how you will know students understand the concepts from the lesson. If the students can accurately fill out the Vocab and Study Guide, then they will understand how the Haudenosaunee lived.
