Well-being
Some of the most successful teachers of First Nations, Métis and Inuit students are the ones who have taken the time to build positive relationships. Approaches to building relationships include knowing local protocols (rules of etiquette), extending a hand of friendship, and becoming involved in the local community activities. The digital resource Walking Together: First Nations, Métis and Inuit Perspectives in Curriculum from Alberta Education provides information on supporting the well-being of Aboriginal children and their communities. For a sample from this resource, listen to the late Victor Prinz, a Métis Elder, speak about how members of healthy communities live and play together. This interview is located in the Respecting Wisdom section of the Well-being topic area.
