Term 1:
In preparation for Orange Shirt Day, our class read Stolen Words by Melanie Florence, a story about a young girl who helps her grandfather reclaim Cree words he was forbidden to use during his time at residential school.  We also explored how language plays a vital role in shaping identity and culture. Using a given template, students wrote their own poem that included personal reflections and words from their home language.
