The Ute Indian Culture
1. Select an aspect of the Ute Culture to research: Bear Dance, Sun Dance, Tribal History, Ute Families, Ute Creation Story, Tribal Flag, Chief Ouray, Legends and Stories, or another topic of your choice. After you have completed your research, write a short report explaining your findings. Then construct some type of "artifact" to go with your report. For example, if you learned about the instruments used by the Ute tribe, you could create one of those instruments.
