Hello there and welcome to my Aboriginal Learning Blog! As the Indigenous Learning Lead at Second Street Community school in Burnaby I am on a journey to grow my understanding of Aboriginal Culture. Not only its history, but how it is alive and thriving today. As I progress in my understanding I hope to take you along with me.
I acknowledge and am thankful that the Burnaby School District is on the unceded Coast Salish territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Qayqayt, Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), S’ólh Téméxw (Stó:lō), and səl̓ílwətaʔɬ /Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. I would also like to thank the Kwikwetlem Nation on whose land I live on with my family and now work remotely from. I am a first generation Canadian, my mother’s side immigrated to Canada in the 60s from Spain and my father immigrated to Canada from Greece in the late 70s.
I will be posting resources for elementary educators to help them indigenize authentically their teaching practice as well as provide content that will be relevant and helpful to our Indigenous students and their families.
You can get involved by commenting on posts and sharing materials with me that you think should be showcased.
Forgive my first initial posts as I navigate learning all this new tech!
