Free Orange Shirt Day Webinar and Resources

 In NEWS

Orange Shirt Day is an Indigenous-led grassroots day intended to commemorate and raise awareness of the individual, family, and community impacts of residential schools. Are you wondering how to discuss such a heavy topic with learners you’re just getting to know? We can help!

Learning Bird has created age- and grade-appropriate resources for K–12 learners. These resources explore the history of residential schools and the origins of Orange Shirt Day. These classroom-ready resource kits include a teacher background document, framing presentations, and a series of in-class activities that help learners understand the impacts residential schools had on Survivors.

We hosted a free webinar for educators on how to use our Orange Shirt Day resource kits in the classroom! Education Consultants Hannah Arseneau-Danielis and Denise Desjardins discussed practical strategies and best practices for using these resources in your classroom.

You can watch the webinar recording even if you missed the live session!
