"The introduction of Saskatchewan's new Law 30 curriculum means that teachers are reworking their Law 30 programs. As Saskatchewan's source for free legal information, PLEA is making it easier to accomplish this task.

PLEA will continually be constructing this portal that links Law 30 curricular outcomes and indicators to available PLEA resources, across all of our programming.

Click any Outcome listed on the menu to the left (desktop) or the Browse Resource menu on the top (mobile) to find what resources we have available for those outcomes. Because some resources will fulfill more than one indicator, to help you along we list (in parentheses) any other Law 30 indicators linked to that resource.

As we introduce new resources, we will link them on this guide. Check back often!"

Virtual Exhibit (Touring Exhibit Available)

Powwow! Ohcîwin The Origins
Oh-cÎ-win:
Ooo-chi-win, Cree
1. “The Origin” or telling of a story of where something originated
Powwows are Indigenous cultural celebrations where many forms of dance styles are performed as part of the ceremony. These social gatherings, held across North America, bring people together to sing, dance and share teachings all while celebrating Indigenous culture. Each dance style has a meaning or origin story and a specific purpose. Regalia, the distinctive clothing and ornamentation worn by the dancers, corresponds to the different dance styles.

Powwow! OchÎwin the Origins was created by Patrick and Marrisa Mitsuing of Powwow Times. Working with a diverse team of Indigenous Artists they assembled each of the individual dance regalia on display. During the 2019 and 2020 Powwow season, they met with knowledge keepers across North America to record the origin stories of the dances they perform.

The dances are: Men’s Traditional, Men’s Fancy, Men’s Chicken, Men’s Grass, Women’s Traditional, Women’s Fancy and Women’s Jingle.

Supreme Law - The Constitution (delivered by Internet Stars from the NFB)
Rating
0.0 stars

Americans are passionate about their constitution. Canadians aren’t. Supreme Law is here to change that.

Made in partnership with the Centre for Constitutional Studies and directed by two-time Emmy winner Katerina Cizek, this interactive "choose your own adventure" documentary brings together Canadian YouTube stars, constitutional scholars, historic video clips, and meticulously researched background on one of the most important and dramatic political events in Canada of the 20th century.

And it’s all wrapped in a brilliantly retro visual aesthetic with a soundtrack of tunes that rocked the country during the ’80s. This is an entertaining and rich resource for anyone who wants to understand the stories behind the Canadian Constitution and how they continue to resonate today.
