❤️Looking for culturally appropriate activities to celebrate Native American Heritage or Indigenous Peoples' Day in your classroom? Your students will love learning about The Seven Grandfather Teachings (The 7 Sacred Teachings) with engaging reading passages, mini readers, coloring pages, posters, worksheets, and more!
⭐️What are The Seven Grandfather Teachings?
It is believed that this wisdom came from the Anishinaabe (Ojibwe) people, but has been adapted and used by many Indigenous cultures. Each teaching is a special lesson that helps us be better to ourselves, others, and the world around us. (Note: The animals and teachings can vary based on location or Indigenous group.)
⭐️ Learn about:
love (eagle), respect (buffalo), courage (bear), honesty (sabe/sasquatch), wisdom (beaver), humility (wolf), and truth (turtle).
