Partnering with Newcomer Families
Strategies for working across language and cultural differences to make families feel at home in new schools
This mini-lesson will explore Canada’s anti-Chinese policies through a historical lens, while unpacking the marketing of the “tunnels of Moose Jaw” tourism and its harmful contributions to anti-Chinese systemic discrimination. The lesson will also help students analyze the role of voice in storytelling, through media literacy and a focus on reclaiming voice and narrative.
Passages Canada is a national storytelling initiative of Historica Canada that nurtures empathy and respect across difference. Our volunteer speakers share their personal stories of identity, culture and immigration at local schools and community groups and online in our Story Archive. The program is completely free, thanks to generous funding from Citizenship and Immigration Canada and TD Bank. Invite a free guest speaker for Black History Month, Asian Heritage Month, or any time throughout the year. To book or become a speaker, visit www.passagescanada.ca

Les élèves apprendront les traits des intervenants en droits de l'homme, seront introduits à la Déclaration universelle des droits de l'homme et examineront leurs forces personnelles. En suivant l'exemple des intervenants dont ils apprennent l'histoire, les élèves seront mis au défi de prendre des mesures tangibles pour devenir eux-mêmes des intervenants en droits de l'homme.
