Abstract

"... A series of lesson plans for teachers, and other leaders, to use in classroom settings. In this guide there will be lesson plans, comprehension and research questions, activities and colouring pages [copyable]. The information in this guide can be adapted for each grade, though the content provided aims to inform students in grade 5 and up. As one embarks on a journey of learning about Indian Residential School history, reconciliation and Orange Shirt Day it is imperative to take pause and reflect on how to teach Indigenous content. It is recommend[ed] that this guide be used chronologically to learn how to authentically teach Indigenous content and perspectives."--page 2.
