4 The Sioux live in teepees. Teepees were made to set up and break down easily. Teepees are made of long thin poles that are tree trunks. Then women from a triangle with the tree trunks. Next they drape about 18 buffalo hides over the tree trunks and that is how the Sioux make a teepee.

5 The Cheyenne lived in teepees. The teepees are made of buffalo hides and long poles. They set the poles up in a triangular form then they drape the buffalo hides over the poles.

6 Sioux women wore long deer skin or elk skin dresses. The men wore breech clothes, leggings, and buck skin shirts. Both wore moccasins. In bad weather they wore buffalo-hide robes. They made these out of buffalo hide, deer skin, and elk skin. Sioux warriors and chiefs wore impressive feather war bonnets.

7 The Cheyenne women wore deer and elk skin dresses. The Sioux men wore breechcloth pants and deer skin shirts. They used deer and elk skins to make the clothes.

8 The Sioux fought with the white settlers. When they complain to the U.S. government they ordered the army to move them to a reservation. This was negative because most of the white settlers died and the Sioux lost their land.

9 The Plains Indian tribes fought but instead of fighting over land they fought to prove their courage.
