Here is a snapshot of the learning that teachers and students have had in #LKDSB. As Gretchen says, you have to have built relationships for this kind of learning to happen. Anushiik to all those teachers building authentic relationships.

[Gretchen Sands-Gamble @GSandsGamble]

Check out all the awesome learning that has been happening in the #LKDSB #IndigEdLK this year! We are working hard to build and strengthen relationships so we can learn and grow together! @IndigStudiesLK

As we mark Indigenous History month and try to digest the current racism both here in Canada and in the US, you need to read this thread. There are so many lessons here. Share. Share. Share.

[Denise Helmer-J @HelmerJohnston]

This is a thread every teacher should read. Please pass along to all your teacher friends.

After hearing these four amazing speakers discuss this in November, I know this is going to be amazing. Folks put this in your calendars!

[IndigStudiesLKDSB @IndigStudiesLK]

This is such a great opportunity for our students! Career exploration from home.

[Denise Helmer-J @HelmerJohnston]

Schools may not be physically in schools but career exploration continues. Take a look at this opportunity.

[Gretchen Sands-Gamble @GSandsGamble]

Yes! Listen to the Water Walker here, folks! This is one of my favourite books to share with students! #LKDSB
What are YOU going to do about it?

[IndigStudiesLKDSB @IndigStudiesLK]

Lesson idea: this would make an important comparison for NBE. Teach media literacy.

[Anika Guthrie @AnikaCheyenne]

What a perfect example of white supremest reporting.
Victim blaming well in tact for a young Indigenous woman, but the white mass murderer? He was just a passionate guy 😡

This was an incredible day at WDSS. @LKDSB We were all so thankful to be part of this day.

[Gretchen Sands-Gamble @GSandsGamble]

Miigwech to Ms Shognosh for inviting me to the Mid Winter Celebration today. It was so great to see young kids, teenagers, adults and elders together sharing stories and playing games, celebrating culture. @wdsstartans @wdsslibrary #humansofLKDSB

HUGELY important 👇🏼

[IndigStudiesLKDSB @IndigStudiesLK]

Media lessons need to include information about the harm that can and is done through social media, including what is happening now.

[IndigStudiesLKDSB @IndigStudiesLK]

Important. Read and watch.

[Jody Kohoko @JodyKohoko]

Educators pls watch. We need to educate ourselves. Also, check in with Indigenous youth & see how they are. These are very difficult times for us.
