This unit is designed to increase Native students’ resilience through examining Intertribal ways to increase holistic wellness.
Many of the lessons are designed using the book The Sacred Tree: Reflections on Native American Spirituality by Judie Bopp (Author), Michael Bopp (Author), Lee Brown (Author), Phil Lane Jr. (Author), and Patricia Morris (Illustrator). If you are facilitating this unit, you should have a copy of this book to aid you. The lessons also utilize the teachings of the Medicine Wheel and incorporate storytelling as a way to share cultural knowledge.
