For All Students
Turtle Island Voices honours the histories, cultures, world views, and knowledge of many Aboriginal peoples of Canada. First Nations, Métis, and Inuit students will delight in seeing themselves, their cultures, and their traditions reflected in the books. The memorable stories and characters in each book will allow all students to connect to the text, encouraging them to respond by sharing their own stories and experiences with one another. |

Circle In and Circle OutEach selection in Turtle Island Voices begins with a Circle In activity and concludes with two Circle Out activities. Circle In activities are designed to prompt students to preview the text, access prior knowledge, or make predictions. Circle Out activities take students beyond the selection, making text-to-text, text-to world, and text-to-self connections. |
