This document contains all four lesson plans in the series of ‘pedagogical activities for Elementary Cycle 3 students (Grades 5 and 6) and Secondary IV (Grade 10) students.’  The four lesson plans/pedagogical activities teach Naskapi history from a Naskapi perspective. These activities are conceived to be spread over one school year, with the objective for students to make links between each activity.  Each activity focuses on specific competencies included in Social Sciences subject area of the Québec Education Program (QEP). The activities concern Geography, History and Citizenship Education course for Elementary Cycle 3 (Grades 5 and 6), and History of Québec and Canada course for Secondary IV (Grade 10). These choices are related to the historical periods covered by the QEP, including the period from 1800 to now for Elementary Cycle 3, and the period from 1840 to now for Secondary IV. It is also possible to adapt these activities for students in other courses, for example with Naskapi culture program offered at Jimmy Sandy Memorial School.
