Are you interested in authentically weaving Indigenous Ways of Knowing and Being into your STEM lessons but don’t know where to start? Are you mindful of avoiding tokenism and teaching reconciliation with respect and authenticity? If so, then this is the session for you! Amanda Green will share her journey in learning from Indigenous people and appropriately implementing a variety of lessons that you can then use either on your own, or with guidance of a community member. Please remember that this is from the point of view of an ally, who sometimes makes mistakes, but ultimately wants to help others learn from them and do better. Amanda primarily focuses on Junior High (both in English and French), but has many ideas you can use with students of all ages.
