Advice
The best advice is in the links I've given you about. This is important not just here but for anything you write. It has to be in your own words, and this doesn't mean just changing things around a bit. Taking five paragraphs from a source and putting them in your own words in the same sequence isn't what we are looking for here, and something we fail people for at school as well (I've marked enough college essays and theses to have seen this attempted). And please don't put your signature anyplace but talk pages. I know how difficult this can be at first, especially as you are trying to do this as an assignment.

Anthropology class editing
I really enjoyed this article! I didn't implement any edits myself,but you might want to think about linking the parts of the article that you wrote to other Wikipedia articles. Maybe provide few more citations and technical things like that. Do you know what the reason for the two sizes of wigwams? Why couldn't there be various sizes, and why were they conical or dome like. Was there a difference in function for the two shapes?( I am actually super curious about this) I also think it would be really interesting if you spoke a little more about their hunting and fishing processes. I know moose hunting was mentioned in the article, but does that strategy apply to all animals? A section on their medicinal practice might be really interesting as well.
