The BC Ministry of Education redesigned its curriculum to include more Indigenous perspectives, and provides a number of Aboriginal Education Resources. These resources include maps of First Nations and languages in BC, information on reconciliation, and specific details about the new curriculum.
The Ministry also encourages Aboriginal Education Enhancement Agreements (EAs) that strive to “enhance the educational achievement of Aboriginal students.” These are working agreements between school districts, First Nations communities within the district, and the Ministry. For more information on EAs and how to pursue one for your school district, see https://www.bced.gov.bc.ca/abed/agreements/.
INAC's Kids’ Stop provides fun and engaging resources for students aged four to sixteen to learn about the lives, culture, and history of Indigenous peoples in Canada. The Kids’ Stop includes lesson plans, games, stories from Indigenous children, activity sheets, and much more.
