Learning First Peoples Classroom Resources

http://www.fnesc.ca/learningfirstpeoples/

This website is rich in resources that can be used in the classroom immediately. The First Nations Education Steering Committee and the First Nations Schools Association, in collaboration with teachers and partners, have developed the following Learning First Peoples series of teacher resources to support English Language Arts, Science Social Studies and Mathematics courses. All of the resources reflect the First Peoples Principles of Learning and strive to integrate indigenous knowledge and way of learning into the classroom. Each book has a PDF version which is downloadable and includes lessons taught from an indigenous perspective and with cultural content. As a teacher, I find this website to be a strong jumping off point and gives me confidence to try.

  1. Thankyou for sharing this website with us. I browsed its content thoroughly and was hoping to find some resource for CS but I didn’t. So I downloaded the “Math First people” pdf because its the closest to CS.
