WHAT IS TRUTH AND RECONCILIATION

RESIDENTIAL SCHOOL CLASSROOM RESOURCES

These resources have been designed and compiled to aid secondary teachers in introducing their students to the historical significance and impact of residential school in Canada.  

Resources and activities have been designed with the grade 10 student in mind but can easily be adapted for other age groups.

Primary source documents come from a variety of educational, news and media collections.  Specific effort has been made to include sources from Lejac Residential School.  

It is hoped that these sources will provide a jumping off point for teachers and students to further explore the legacy of Residential Schools in B.C. and Canada.
