Wawatay Online Learning
Wawatay commissioned an educator to prepare curriculum-ready exercises for high school teachers and students in Nishnawbe Aski Nation communities. The classroom exercises – "test your knowledge" quizzes, grammar challenges and lessons – are based on 30 stories from the Wawatay News archive, from 1974 to 2004. The exercises and stories are available in the Wawatay Online Learning section of our website in text and in some cases audio format, in English and some Oji-Cree. These are culturally relevant teaching tools for a range of school courses, including: Aboriginal (Native) studies, expressing Aboriginal cultures, art, introduction to business, government, English, careers, geography, communications technology, and Oji-Cree.The Wawatay Online Learning project was funded by K-Net and Industry Canada’s First Nations SchoolNet program.
