FNMI Parent/Community Inclusive Strategies
Strategies include building relationships that:• connect with students—show warmth, caring, sensitivity,
humor, trust and high expectations. • create a collaborative system of learning where children,
parents and the whole community are learning together while preserving their history, culture and language.
• include both traditional and contemporary culture regarding philosophy and worldview.
• discuss local issues and controversial current events, particularly those dealing with historical basis.

Culture Responsive Education
Appreciation, understanding and acknowledgement of:
– holistic teachings and understandings of FNMI culture through methodology, curriculum, resources, professional development.
– FNMI perspectives, experiences, and worldviews. Western cultures have influenced many Aboriginal communities. Some community members display a mix of traditional and western practices. Not every member will be able to answer questions about protocol or traditional ceremonies.
– family and community is about interrelatedness and belonging.
