Native Library Resources for Elementary, Junior and Senior High Schools.
Alberta Dept. of Education, Edmonton.
To be updated on a continuing basis, the resources listed in this catalogue are for teachers and students who are interested in Native people's contributions to Alberta and Canada, their histories, and their cultures. Section 1 includes two titles, "The Land of the Bloods" and "The Peigan: A Nation in Transition," which have been approved as basic resources for the Alberta curriculum and have been developed by the Native Education Project in cooperation with school personnel and the Native community. Both titles are available from the Alberta Learning Resources Distributing Centre. Section 2 lists 61 titles that are not approved learning resources, but have been reviewed and recommended by committees of Native teachers. The resources have also been scrutinized using Alberta Education's tolerance and understanding criteria and have been found to meet these criteria. Each entry includes title, author, publisher, date of publication, source from which the material is available, a brief description (including format), an annotation, the reviewer's comments, and suggested grade level. Published between 1969 and 1986, the materials include mostly books (three of which are written both in English and French), filmstrips, and wallcharts. (JMM/ERB)
