Saskatchewan Homes - Tipi

Matching exercise

To erect a tipi - What was done first? Then what would need to be done? Set the steps into the right order.

Cut long thin pine trees.
Make poles by trimming branches off trees.
Tie all the poles together near one end with strapping of buffalo hide.
Set poles upright and spread them out at the base.
Cover the poles with buffalo hides.
The finished Tipi would be about 20 feet high and eighteen feet in diameter across the base.
