What Can I Contribute to Meaningful Reconciliation? Teaching and Learning About Residential Schools
Rating
0.0 stars

A unit for students in grade 6 that explores the causes and consequences of residential schools in Canada.

"Our intention is not only to teach the history, but also to engage our learners in the critical thinking process
so it is no longer just the sharing of information, the critically thinking about what led us to this point in time, and intentionally planning for where we want to go in the future as we walk along the path to Reconciliation.

Reconciliation is both an individual journey as well as a collective journey. Our hope is that this resource will support our students in learning the history present within our community, create intercultural understanding of our complex communities, and help build the unknown future ahead."

The lesson plans in this resource are organized into three lines or units of inquiry. The lines of inquiry
are designed to develop students’ understanding and ability to respond to an overarching question and
challenge:

Overarching inquiry question: What might meaningful reconciliation look like?

Overarching challenge: Create a powerful representation to show what meaningful reconciliation means.

If taught individually, the lessons help students understand various aspects of residential schools and
reconciliation in Canada. As components of a unit of study, these lessons invite critical inquiry into a wider
range of topics and issues relating to reconciliation in Canada.

Each lesson includes detailed instructional strategies and required support materials. These include briefing
sheets, activity sheets, images, and source documents.

Inspired by a woven blanket, the Witness Blanket is a large-scale work of art. It contains hundreds of items reclaimed from residential schools, churches, government buildings and traditional and cultural structures from across Canada.

Here, you can explore the items and stories carried by the Witness Blanket. They are accompanied by the voices of Survivors who talk about the experience of being forced into residential schools. Their generous and insightful stories convey the reality of anti-Indigenous racism, colonialism and genocide. They reveal the ongoing harms caused by Canada’s residential school system.

tânisi!
itwêwina is a Plains Cree Dictionary.

Type any Cree word to find its English translation. You can search for short Cree words (e.g., atim) or very long Cree words (e.g., ê-kî-nitawi-kâh-kîmôci-kotiskâwêyâhk). Or you can type an English word and find its possible Cree translations. You can write words in Cree using standard Roman orthography (SRO) (e.g., acimosis) or using syllabics (e.g., ᐊᒋᒧᓯᐢ).

The spoken Cree word recordings are courtesy of speakers in Maskwacîs and Moswacîhk. The synthesized word-forms are based on recordings of a speaker from Maskêko-sâkahikanihk.

nêhiyawêwin (Cree) language learning resources
Rating
0.0 stars

The University of Regina Press has made a number of excellent resources available online for open access. These resources, developed by Jean Okimâsis include a grammar guide, a workbook, and links to audio resources.
The resource include:
- a grammar guide, available as a PDF for download
- a link to the Language Lab user guide
- a Language Lab Workbook
- a Soundcloud link to Cree Language of the Plains audio sessions
- an Open Access link to a page that has all the above resources available in different formats.

Jean Okimâsis and Arok Wolvengrey also wrote a fantastic resource “How to Spell it in Cree“, which you can download as a PDF. It lays out the rules of a standardized written Cree, but also does important work of addressing the criticisms of standardization. It challenges the notion that we can ever use English to ‘phonetically’ represent the Cree language, champions a specific orthography for Cree, and describes how standardization, rather than destroying or degrading the language, will help ensure Cree continues to survive.
