This Is What I’ve Been Told - package with lesson plan and poster

Knowing our culture means knowing who we are. When we know who we are, we can walk in a good way.

It’s been said when teachings are passed down from one generation to the next, good things can happen. Language is learned, knowledge is shared, and culture is practiced. In this story of language preservation, Author/Illustrator and Anishnaabemowin language teacher Juliana Armstrong illuminates a number of Anishnaabemowin words along with their cultural connections, passed down from her Ojibway ancestors.
