4. How to Make a Wigwam Step 1 To build a wigwam, the people cut down young trees called saplings. They trimmed off the branches. Then they dug holes in the ground. They put saplings in the holes. This held the saplings in place. Step 2 They bent the saplings over, then lashed them together with cords, vines or animal skins. This made a frame for the wigwam. Step 3 Finally, they covered the frame with bark or mats made of grasses and reeds. They left a door and a hole in the top, so the smoke from the fire could escape.

6. How to Build a Longhouse Step 1 First stakes are places in the ground. Then storage pits are dug in the ground. They leave a space for an entrance in the Longhouse. The Longhouse was 60 feet long and 25 feet wide. Step 2 Saplings were attached to the stakes. They were bent over and weaved together. They were covered with bark. Step 3 Sleeping platforms are added. Storage shelves, fire pits, and hooks are added. The storage pits are filled with food and covered with bark.
