ACTIVITÉS

Il existe deux types d’activités. Les activités dans les trousses et les activités pour les objets.

Les activités dans les trousses proposent des projets qui s’étendent sur un ou plusieurs cours. Ces activités reposent sur les concepts de la pensée historique, dans le cadre de l’exploration de l’ensemble de la trousse, ce qui offre une expérience approfondie.

Les activités pour les objets sont courtes; elles prennent pour la plupart de 5 à 25 minutes à réaliser. Elles encouragent les élèves à exercer leur esprit critique à l’égard des objets présentés et à faire usage des concepts de la pensée historique.

Les deux types d’activités ont été créés selon les conseils de spécialistes de l’enseignement de partout au Canada. Elles intègrent les théories et les méthodes pédagogiques actuelles.»

Canadian History from a First Nations Perspective
Rating
0.0 stars

Socially-based Curriculum Unit
The main focus of the unit, developed for CHC2P, Grade 10 Applied History, is to look at the curriculum from a First Nation’s perspective. The unit was developed to provide students with the knowledge and understanding of how First Nations contributed to the development of Canadian society. The unit also looks at both how events in history both impacted on First Nations communities, and how history was shaped by First Nations contributions.

The unit begins by looking at the effects of Residential Schools on individuals and communities in the past and today. Next students will look at First Nations contributions to the war effort in World War One and World War Two, by looking at some extraordinary individuals such as Tom Longboat, Francis Pegamagabow, and Henry Norwest. Students will also explore how First Nations people had to fight for equal rights in Canada through creating their own political organizations. There will also be a focus on the current realities in First Nations communities, which will be highlighted by looking at the issues of land claims and self-government. Lastly the unit will end with a culminating task that highlights a wide range of First Nations leaders and their contributions in the past and present to Canadian society.

From October 17th to 22nd, we observe Secret Path Week, an annual event dedicated to honoring the legacies of Gord Downie and Chanie Wenjack. These dates mark the anniversaries of Gord Downie’s and Chanie Wenjack’s entering the spirit world. Chanie, only 12 years old, fled from Cecilia Jeffrey Residential School in Kenora, Ontario, and walked along the train tracks for 36 hours before succumbing to exposure on October 22. Although Chanie is no longer with us, his story lives on through Gord Downie’s album Secret Path.

First Nations Residential Schools and Reconciliation Resources
Rating
0.0 stars

The Indian Residential Schools and Reconciliation Teacher Resource Guides for grades 5, 10 and 11/12 were developed by the First Nations Education Steering Committee and the First Nations Schools Association. They are our response to the call by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada for education bodies to develop age-appropriate educational materials about Indian Residential Schools.

It is our hope that these resources will help students of all cultural backgrounds gain an understanding of the history of the relationship between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people over Canada’s history, with a focus on the BC experience. The materials are also designed to engage young people to take part in the journey of reconciliation.

A video on the home page does a great job of describing the who, what, and why of the resources.

First Nations in Canada
Rating
0.0 stars

First Nations in Canada is an educational resource designed for use by young Canadians; high school educators and students; Aboriginal communities; and anyone interested in First Nations history. Its aim is to help readers understand the significant developments affecting First Nations communities from the pre-Contact era (before the arrival of Europeans) up to the present day.

The first part of this text —"Early First Nations" — presents a brief overview of the distinctive cultures of the six main geographic groups of early First Nations in Canada. This section looks at the principal differences in the six groups' respective social organization, food resources, homes, modes of transportation, clothing, and spiritual beliefs and ceremonies.

Parts two through six of this text trace the relationship between First Nations and newcomers to Canada from the very first encounter up to the government's historic apology in June 2008 to all former students of Indian Residential Schools. In this apology, the Government of Canada expressed deep regret for the suffering individual students and their families experienced because of these schools. The government also acknowledged the harm that residential schools and assimilation policies had done to Aboriginal people's cultures, languages and heritage.

Today the Government of Canada is working in partnership with First Nations in this new era of reconciliation to build stronger First Nations communities. All across the country, this crucial collaborative work is taking place in areas as diverse as First Nations economies, education, governance, social services, human rights, culture and the resolution of outstanding land claims.

GAP Infusion Poster

Rating
0.0 stars

Teachers understand that there are many layers of content, outcomes, skills, and experiences that our students require throughout their educational journey to become competent 21st century learners. Teachers have must dos, such as curricular outcomes and assessment, but there are also many additional elements to provide enrichment to learning for students. All of these layers can become overwhelming if only considered from the perspective of teaching these elements in silos. GAP or Grade Alike Planning in Sun West has offered opportunities to teachers to reimagine these elements by infusing them together. The GAP Infusion Poster illustrates a visual of this philosophy where many elements are blended thoughtfully together to meet many learning outcomes, provide many opportunities, and give students' voice and choice in their learning by exploring their interests and learning needs.
