Description
'Speaking our Truth A Journey of Reconciliation' Teacher Guide is an excellent complement to Speaking Our Truth published in 2017. Embark on your journey of reconciliation in the classroom by using this comprehensive guide to help you build an inquiry-based unit plan focused on Indigenous teachings. Begin the journey by thinking with your heart and packing for your journey with a teacher's checklist, practice ongoing collaborative practices by keeping a reflection journal for example and use daily strategies for meaningful learning. Each of the four chapters has a summary, essential questions, metaphors for learning and key concepts and vocabulary. Chapter one Welcomes you to the Journey by holding each other up. Chapter two is on Honesty and where have we come from, Chapter three is on Love and where we stand today and chapter four Kindness and Reciprocity where do we go from here. Learning activities are part of each chapter such as analyzing stereotypes or understanding resistance, beyond reconciliation and re-visioning Canada. There are also handouts as an additional resource. This is an essential partner to the successful Speaking Our Truth hardcover book.
