Sitting Bull and Little Bighorn Videos and Free Acrostic Poem Assignment

Here is a great video about Sitting Bull and his role in Native American resistance, particularly in the Battle of Little Bighorn. It’s not on Youtube, but you can watch it here. There’s even a link to download the video! This is a great option if you need to post it somewhere for distance learning or if you want to have a copy on your hard drive in case your internet goes down the day you want to show the video.

Here’s another video showing the reaction to the Battle of Little Bighorn.

This is a longer video that gives a play by play of the Battle of Little Bighorn. It might be too long for the classroom if you have a lot of material to cover, but it would be a great suggestion for students who want to learn more about the battle itself.

Easy assignments to implement after watching these videos include a word web about Sitting Bull or my free acrostic poem assignment.
