Yesterday, Mr. McAndrew’s English III students had the opportunity to visit the Seneca-Iroquois National Museum to learn about the culture, beliefs, and history of the Iroquois people. In American Literature, they begin the year by reading the first part of the Iroquois creation story, “The World on the Turtle’s Back,” so this trip gave students a deeper understanding of the people who created some of our nation’s earliest literature. #Prep #English
