Teacher Resources

Created by Ontario’s Ministry of Education, this website provides a toolkit of grade specific and curriculum linked ideas to support teachers in bringing Aboriginal perspectives into the classroom. The Toolkit provides ideas for teaching and learning, as well as practical teaching strategies. The themes include: Aboriginal Peoples and Organization, Culture, Tradition, and Language, Cross-Cultural Perspectives, Celebration, and Aboriginal Contributions. Individual grade level guides (grades 1 to 12) are available for download as PDF files.
