The Child
"It was said that one
day a Child will be born among the Dene who will change the
world. This child will be born with a drum held in his hands. He
will help us to regain our strength as a people." - (Izi)
Joe Naedzo, The Sahtuotine Long Ago, 1991

Primary
Objective:
It is hoped that through the development of this
curriculum the children will realize how valuable they
are to the Dene culture, elders and people. Students
should learn how children were viewed and brought up
traditionally. They should evaluate child-rearing
methods in the past, and compare them with present
methods. They will understand the importance of sharing,
being self-disciplined, and learning from their elders. |
