Within the Glenbow Museum website, there are links to the Indigenous Exhibitions as well as to a Learning Resource section. Within the Learning Resource section you can find protocols to support teachers in teaching First Nations students as well as access to instructional units and other resources to support lesson planning through the Teacher’s Toolkit. All the units provided have been designed to work with the Blackfoot Virtual Exhibit activities and provide cultural and historical resources, strategies for assessment as well as various activities. When you access the Blackfoot Virtual Exhibit there are three language options: English, French and even Blackfoot. There are also four main sections of focus: How we lived with the buffalo, How we lived with the land, How we lived with our families and How we lived with other people. These are great topics that can be used when teachers are planning their lessons and I can see an extension to fit into Place Based Learning. Beyond that there are also links to Treaties, The Whiskey Trade, Reserves, Residential Schools, Language etc.
