If you are looking for a direct connection between the First People’s Principles of Learning, the BC curriculum, and the classroom, this is a document for you! This document was produced by the Aboriginal Nations Education Division (ANED), Greater Victoria School District #61. The document breaks down each of the First Peoples Principles of Learning and makes direct connections to the BC Curriculum core competencies. The document also breaks down and explains the perspective and worldview related to each of the principles. Lastly, the document also shares what each of the principles looks like in the classroom. The practicality of this document really drew me in. In learning about the First Peoples Principles of Learning, it is so helpful to see what they look like in a classroom and how they relate to the curriculum. It allows educators that are unsure of their next steps to see what it looks like. I think often educators feel they need to change everything they do and by being about to read about what the First Peoples Principles of Learning looks like in the classroom, educators can see that there may be many things they already do in the classroom that connect to the First Peoples Principles of Learning and the First Peoples Principles of Learning doesn’t mean starting from scratch, rather it is change the structure through which the classroom and learning happens.
