Canadian Aboriginal Festival: November 17-20, 2011
Education Day – Thursday November  17, 2011

location: Better Living centre, exhibition place, toronto

The Better Living Centre will become the world’s largest classroom when up to 6,000 students and teachers converge on the site for the Canadian Aboriginal Festival’s Education Day.

The students from Toronto and surrounding areas will have a number of topic options from the thirty teaching stations in the coliseum ranging from heritage and culture, traditional games, dancing and more. The majority of the teaching stations are participatory.

All of the teachings are directly tied to the school curriculum for Native Studies through the use of teaching guides prepared by the Elementary Teachers Federation of Ontario.

Teachers attending with their classes are provided with printed materials, including the teaching guides and more to assist them in teaching Native Studies.
