First Nation, Mtis & Inuit Education Association of Ontario (FNMIEAO) Presents
"Ishpi-Gikendaassowin" Higher Learning - Infusing Aboriginal Culture into the Classroom (K-6)
Learn how to infuse authentic teaching of First Nation, Mtis and nuit cultures and histories into any K-6
classroom through cross-curricular modules that support traditional knowledge, oral history, and
Traditional and Comtemporary Aboriginal Arts as a way to promote student well being. Strong links to the
(2013) Revised Social Studies, History and Geography Curriculum will be shared throughout.

The workshop will focus on how to embed First Nations, Mtis and nuit content into crosscurricular units that
focus on numeracy, the Social Sciences, balanced literacy, and the Sciences, by utilizing traditional and
contemporary Aboriginal Arts as triggers for student engagement. Aboriginal pedagogy that embraces local
traditional knowledge, respect for diverse worldviews, storytelling, and experiential learning will be modeled
and discussed. Participants will learn from the land, from provided resources, from circles and from the
knowledge of local elders. The primary focus will be on developing holistic units that meet expectations while
emphasizing the well being of students and creating responsibility for community and the natural world.

Participants, please bring the following: comfortable clothing and shoes, a water bottle and a backpack for
outdoor activities, curriculum documents for your grade level(s) and smart technology or a laptop (if possible).

Women need to bring a long skirt and clothing that is not revealing for ceremony.
