“I thoroughly enjoyed utilizing the resources from the "Novel Study Indigenous Literature: Moon of the Crusted Snow." It greatly aided me in creating engaging lessons and activities that my students genuinely enjoyed. The materials provided a rich foundation for exploring themes, characters, and cultural elements present in the novel.

This is a great resource for the new Grade 11 Ontario Indigenous English curriculum. I used this as a novel study for my class and we were able to spend the entire 70 minutes talking about the book. Excellent resource!

"Kids had a great time using this in class! It got them much more familiar with the 94 Calls to Action, which was the goal!"

The kids liked this and learned a lot. It was a great way of breaking down the TRC document which is too big and unweildly for grade 9s on its own. A bit of a scramble for me to update the key, as these things change so fast (ie - how many calls to action have been implemented). I broke mine into groups and then they presented their answers to each other. I'll definitely use this again.

Excellent resource to get to know one's students! My students were engaged and it was a timesaver for me.

As I have taught this novel many times since it was published and the world around us has become more and more like the dystopia in the text, I wanted something new that goes beyond mere recall. The questions are sensitive and ask students to draw deeper connections to the text. I really appreciate this!
