Description
Supporting Indigenous Resources for Inclusive Learning for Primary Elementary School Students
This learning resource has seven different activities using the reading strategies: Visualization, Connection, Meaning, and Compare and Contrast.
This unit was created to extend the ideas within the story; allowing students to connect and recognize who holds them up and who they hold up, promoting Inclusive Learning and powerful understanding
You Hold Me Up, a great read aloud to model and recognize respectful behaviour when establishing a 'kind' classroom.
Also included is a take-home mini-book template the students can use to create a personalized You Hold Me Up book.
