This short unit is intended
to be for those students who have not had any contact with First Nations
culture or for those who wish to refresh their minds and go on and learn
more concepts and information. Aboriginal culture in Saskatchewan is made up of five distinct First Nations each having their own distinct culture and language. These nations are the Cree, Dene, Dakota, Lakota, and the Anishnabe. A nation that is sometimes overlooked is the Metis nation. It is extremely important to understand that First Nations cultures are oral cultures and that traditional people are spiritual people following the teachings of the Creator in everything they do. |
