Book

Resurgence : engaging with Indigenous narratives and cultural expressions in and beyond the classroom / edited by Christine M'Lot and Katya Ferguson.

M'Lot, Christine (Educator), (editor.). Ferguson, Katya, (editor.).

Summary:

"Resurgence is a powerful collection of Indigenous voices in poetic, artistic, and narrative texts to support teachers in bridging existing curricular plans with rich, living texts and expressions. Christine M'Lot and Katya Ferguson have made the decision to treat each submission as a "living text" that acts as a springboard for engagement with Indigenous voices and pedagogies that teachers can use with students of all ages (K-12). Each narrative, poem, or artistic expression provides a gift to teachers that evokes critical reflection of past and current teaching practices and inspires new quests and questions."-- Provided by publisher.
