Read more about "Learn about animals, people, and places"Listen and Reflect Indigenous cultures share stories in many ways — orally, in song, in drumming, through dance, with pictographs, and through medicine wheels and tipi rings. Traditionally, stories are told by Elders, or community members who have earned the ability and may be called a Storyteller, or Knowledge Keeper . Deep and active listening is required when listening to Indigenous stories. Indigenous stories are different than western stories. They do not always have a clear beginning, middle, and end. Indigenous stories may affect your student’s emotions, thoughts, spirit, or body differently. Stories are meant to trigger reactions, invite reflection, awaken feelings, activate memories, and touch the heart. Allow students to be affected.
