Courtesy of the school's PTA, fourth grade students at Tackan Elementary School in Nesconset took part in an American Indian experience and learned lessons about their ways of life during Native American Day. 

The students played traditional games, heard tales and stories from a Taino tribesman, created coil pottery and more.
