While all educators should introduce students to activities that reinforce 'own voices' facts/histories, please leave culturally/spiritually significant lessons to members of the Indigenous communities involved. This website can be explored for a broader understanding and appreciation of Algonquin traditions and beliefs. Please note that Flash no longer works.

Indigenous Education pedagogy and practices can evolve over time. It’s important that cultural and sacred teachings be shared by Indigenous people using those traditions - starting locally.
Our updated slidedeck provides guidance on facilitating cultural teachings (which are outside of the Ontario curriculum expectations), for schools committing to ongoing First Nations partnerships.

Facilitating the Seven Teachings (updated)
7 Grandfather Teachings Recording (2024-01-31 12:10 GMT-5)
Primary: Canva Resource
Junior : Canva Resource
The Grandfather finger puppets have been retired from the system and can used by students as animal figures (e.g., Eagles flying in the sky, beavers building dams, etc.) but non-Indigenous educators should not use them to teach Grandfather Teachings, as this responsibility lies with First Nations people. If schools have Grandfather Teaching resources (such as books, coloring pages, videos or the like), we ask that they be used to complement the learning provided by local Indigenous communities.
Schools incorporating the Seven Teachings, kindly reach out to the Indigenous Education team for support.
