Indigenous Ways of Knowing
Hi parents! You can find various Indigenous ways of knowing resources here. In class, we were working on the medicine wheel and putting seasons in the wheel. I have also included a virtual tour of Niitsitapiisinni: Our Way of Life which is from the Glenbow Museum. I highly recommend you to go through the virtual tour!

Medicine Wheel
Students have learned about the four seasons: Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall. Students can draw the four seasons in the medicine wheel. Students have made the medicine wheel before. Students can print this and then color each side and draw the seasons.
