We would love for you to join us to learn about the Indigenous Wisdom Curriculum and how-to implement a unit plan inside your classroom. This virtual session will include an overview of the curriculum, presentations on two recently created unit plans, and opportunities to speak with the IW Lead Team on how to implement and/or modify lesson plans for your own students or to a different grade level.
