Description:
An interactive guide to illustrate and immerse learners about the Secwepemc First Nation. Students will learn the origin story, language, village life, and archeology. I was personally invested in the First Peoples tools and resources used by for coastal First Nations.
Correct pronunciation audio, interactive galleries, photos, and description files allow students to better learn authentically. There is a glossary of important terms used. For example:
C7es7’istkten: Means winter village in the Secwepemc language.
Celebration: Done to honour an event.
Compassion: Pity for the distress of another.
Consecutive: Following in uninterrupted sequence.
Consensus: A collective opinion or general agreement.
Considered: To think about.
Construct: To build.
Consumed: To eat drink or use up.
Contemporaries: Belonging to the same age.
Correspond: To be similar in character or function.
Crosshatch: To shade by cross lines.
Cultivating: To make fit for raising crops as by plowing or fertilizing.
Counsel: A mutual exchange of advice or opinions.
This is a useful way for students to solidify new terms and vocabulary.
The teacher may also further expand on lesson on the various Secwepemc resource links provided on this website.
