Thank you so much, Paula, for directing me to CBC Curio, an incredibly rich educational resource in both French and English. I will dig a little bit deeper to see if they have any Indigenous language services, but at first glance I do not see this availability.
The first video resource that I felt would be very useful for newcomers and international students coming to Canada and having these conversations for the first time. This video is very short, comprehensive and provides an overview of some of the terminology used to talk about Indigenous Peoples.
How to talk about Indigenous people | Curio
This would be an ideal vocabulary warm up and contextualized conversation starter to begin to talk about the importance of names and identification. Inevitably, the lesson would also elicit names and identifications of cultures and ethnicities of students in the classroom. This would be a fantastic way to bridge the cultural divide on day 1.
Thanks again, Paula!
