Native American Lesson Plan. Cultural Appropriation

I was given a task for my second interview, which is to teach a Native American folklore through a creative way.

Being creative isn’t a huge problem for me but I’m white and these children are all probably white. (I live in a VERY WHITE AREA)

It’s 30 minutes for ages between 2nd and 4th grade. I really don’t want to be the next video of the idiot white woman that makes herself look like an ignorant fool.

Besides extensive research, what ideas or advice would you have for an appropriate lesson? I was thinking of finding a song based on a folklore and bringing in props that represent the characters in the song. Then after a few times of practice putting them in groups to make their own props.

I feel like that’s more for a 4th grade level to be put in groups but the point is I don’t want to offend the tribe the song/folklore comes from.

Thank you for reading.
