Arctic Traditions

Students read a detailed passage about the Sámi people and their traditions, including reindeer herding, joik singing, cultural celebrations, and adaptation to Arctic environments. After reading, they answer five higher-order questions requiring explanation, inference, and evidence-based responses. The worksheet builds deep comprehension skills and cultural understanding. It guides students to analyze how environment affects lifestyle and how traditions persist through modernization. Students practice extracting textual evidence and applying critical thinking to cultural and environmental topics.
