Weblog 4: First Nation Literacy

HI everyone,

I find I am drawn to sites that inspire action. I found this site while I was researching broadly about storytelling in First Nations populations. The First Nation Literacy site offers teacher support materials, guides, lesson plans and other resources all aimed at promoting reading and preserving cultural heritage. What I found particularly interesting was the role of storytelling in the subtopics ‘A digital warrior at home in two worlds’, for example, and in ‘Thank you Mom, Part 2’. I’m interested in how storytelling functions in modern daily life for First Nations people, so I was drawn to this connection.

Thanks,

Ginelle
