Art First Nations. Tradition and Innovation
Featuring both traditional and innovative art works, the posters in these kits are beautiful examples of painting, carving, clothing, basketry, jewellery and masks of First Nations peoples from the Arctic to the American Southwest.
The manual contains thematic modules comparing traditional and modern artists and their works from each of the five major cultural regions. Activities are suggested for each of the curriculum components. Included are biographies of artists, maps, timelines, assessment activities, bibliographies and a glossary.
These resources contain significant Canadian content. One module in each kit focuses on Plains art work, but the inclusion of Arapaho of Kansas and Oklahoma under the heading "Métis" may cause confusion. The map on page 19 in each manual shows where individual artists live/lived, but the actual cultures are more widespread.
Both kits are useful for the elementary level.

Little Kids - Powerful Problem Solvers: Math Stories from a Kindergarten Classroom
This book is a collection of stories, one for each month of the school year, that illustrate how a kindergarten teacher engaged her students in critical thinking and mathematical problem solving using issues as they arose in her classroom. By creating a mathematically rich environment and a classroom climate supportive of interaction and discourse, the teacher helped students to explore, observe, estimate, predict, hypothesize, analyze and apply mathematical concepts. Each story concludes with a reflection on the mathematical concepts illustrated in the story. The authors emphasize the importance of teachers' understanding of these concepts in order to take advantage of teachable moments. This resource supports developmentally appropriate instruction in mathematics.

This award-winning series, produced in Cree, English and French, uses stop-motion animation to portray life in a fictional northern Saskatchewan community. It focuses on issues and events in the lives of children and their supportive families in this traditional Cree community. The adults guide the children to retain their traditional culture and values while living in the modern world. In this episode, six year old Raven must write a report on identity, describing who she thinks she is. Through talking to many people in the community, 10-year-old Talon reconciles her Cree-Metis identity as a daughter and sister. Cousin T-Bear and brother Talon are asked to help create a sweat lodge and through their hard work they earn their Indian names. Non-Aboriginal students viewing this film will gain a better understanding of Aboriginal identity and traditional practices. T-Bone's father's role at the band office provides a glimpse into First Nations governance and its complex issues.

Symbols such as Mother Earth's 13 moons, the Medicine Wheel, the Métis infinity flag and an inuksuk can be used to spark discussions that could include: the history and meanings of these symbols, the relationship of First Nations peoples to the land and their legends and folklore. A short paperback guide accompanies the carpet and provides teaching suggestions and an outline drawing of each symbol on the carpet.

Aboriginality
Aboriginality re-imagines the strength and spirit of First Nations culture through narrative mediums that connect urban First Nations youth to their rural ancestral histories. Dallas Arcand, world champion hoop dancer and hip-hop artist, is inspired by both new and traditional elements of First Nations culture. He plays dual roles in being both a positive First Nations presence in mainstream urban media and a touchstone to traditional First Nations roots and culture.

Bearcub and Mama
With his mother's guidance, a little bear cub learns so much - how to catch a fish, how to climb a tree, how to dig for grubs. Mama is always close to Bearcub to teach and comfort him. This comfortable situation, however, begins to change as Bearcub tests his independence. One day, the little bear cub is alone in the forest when a storm darkens the sky. Bearcub is afraid, but he remembers what his mother has taught him and he manages to return home safely. The rich, acrylic-on-canvas illustrations beautifully capture the fierceness of the storm and the loving relationship between a mother and child.

Brain Gains: Better Grades Through Fitness
The National visits an inner city high school in Saskatoon, SK, where teacher Allison Cameron tests the theory that vigorous daily exercise improves academic performance. City Park Collegiate is considered a high school of last resort for kids who haven't been able to make it anywhere else. The Grade 8 and 9 students contend with a wide range of behavioural problems: almost half are diagnosed with ADHD and many work at a Grade 4 level. When Allison came across groundbreaking research by Harvard psychiatrist John Ratey (author of Spark), showing a link between sustained aerobic activity and the brain's ability to learn, she took the data to her principal to make the case for a new approach. For Allison and her students, the program was a runaway success and test results prove it.
