Video Resource: “Full Circle: First Nations, Métis, Inuit Ways of Knowing”

Full Circle: First Nations, Metis, Inuit Ways of Knowing



This video, on the Ontario Secondary School Teachers’ Federation website, consists of the stories of six different teenagers on their journey towards self-identity. Each student is unique in his and her own way yet they share a common thread as they are all members of Canada’s Aboriginal peoples, First Nations, Inuit or Métis. This is an excellent video to show students from 8-12 as an introduction to Aboriginal topics or as the core component of a lesson itself. This video can also used to show certain clips (suicide issues among Aboriginal peoples, achievements by Aboriginal peoples, Aboriginal students who feel they don’t fit in, etc.).
