We were learning about the importance of First Nations peoples to Canada in Social Studies 5. Students learned about the Medicine Wheel, the importance of the Circle to FN history, and how the FN structures their government, among other concepts. After researching, students compared FN peoples` way of structuring their government with Hutterians` government structure, and found them to be quite similar, which was an eye opener for them. Using a retelling strategy, students worked in small groups to find out certain information, and then as a whole group to share their findings. Students then took the information and as a whole group, collaborated to design a poster that could be hung in any classroom in Canada, showing the structure of government of First Nations people.
In today's world, 21st century skills are crucial for our learners as they provide the foundation for success in a rapidly evolving society.

Aboriginal Literatures in Canada: A Teacher’s Resource Guide serves a double purpose: to encourage the teaching of Aboriginal literature in English high school curricula across the country because Aboriginal students deserve to be taught texts they can relate to and, because non-Aboriginal students should be educated about Aboriginal culture, history and contemporary life through the richness of Aboriginal writing with its innovative uses of the English language. Various works of Aboriginal literature are included.
High school graduation rates for First Nations, Métis Nation and Inuit people remain low, particularly at federally-funded schools on reserves. As a result, too many Indigenous youth find themselves with little opportunity once they leave school.
That’s why, in 2008, the Martin Family Initiative launched the Aboriginal Youth Entrepreneurship Program (AYEP), a program for Grades 11 and 12 students, designed to introduce Indigenous students to the wide range of business opportunities available within the Canadian economy. The curriculum teaches students how entrepreneurs and other business people recognize opportunities, generate ideas, and organize resources to plan successful ventures. Indigenous youth learn the perspective and skills required to achieve success in secondary school, the workplace, post-secondary education or training programs, and in daily life.
In this lesson, students will learn how to read and interpret a credit report, and in the process they willdevelop an understanding of how their spending affects their credit history. They will learn about the credit bureaus in Canada, what information they track and who can review the report.

There is also a sample credit report from Equifax on Jane Doe for the students to review and analyze.
Indigenous Peoples have indicated that financial education is a priority for them and complements other training programs in their communities. . To be successful, financial literacy interventions must be community driven, created by and for Indigenous Peoples. These videos and activities allow students to explore the story of a social entrepreneur and leader who values financial literacy and gives back through his business to help his Indigenous community create a better tomorrow.First Nations entrepreneur Mark Marsolais-Nahwegahbow works hard to ensure his family’s financial wellness while making a real impact on his community. He founded a social enterprise that brings fresh drinking water to Indigenous families across Canada. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0A-6JzC0IcwThe activities include multiple choice, vocabulary, short answer and open ended questions giving the students an opportunity to review advice on being an entrepreneur, giving back to your community and providing for your family and future.
