English First Peoples
Welcome!
What does First Peoples class do?
You study authentic Indigenous literature (oral, written, visual) to explore First Nations experiences, values, and realities, focusing on themes like identity, resilience, land, justice, and reconciliation, using critical thinking and creative writing to understand diverse cultures and build connections through authentic voices, often incorporating local Indigenous content and teachings.
This is called a book.
Is First People Class fun?
Yes. English first people is very fun since you get to study about Canada's history. you get to learn new stuff like their language and so on. English First Peoples is such an engaging way to explore literature because it swaps standard lectures for deep, meaningful conversations about identity, storytelling, and the powerful connections we share through our diverse histories and voices.
Why take it?
Taking English First Peoples is a fantastic choice because it moves beyond traditional essays to focus on the power of authentic voice, allowing you to connect with moving stories and oral traditions that make learning feel both deeply personal and incredibly relevant to the world around us.
What to bring for class
All you really need to bring is an open mind and a willingness to share your own story, along with a dedicated notebook or laptop for capturing the powerful ideas and oral traditions we'll be exploring together.
