All year round, the Ontario Teachers’ Federation (OTF) offers a variety of resources and learning opportunities for K-12 teachers, as well as teacher candidates, across the province of Ontario and online. OTF aims to introduce support and develop understanding of truth and movement towards reconciliation. As the voice of Ontario teachers, OTF is a member of the Minister’s Advisory Council on First Nations, Métis and Inuit Education, which provides counsel on matters germane to Indigenous education. OTF was one of the members of the government-convened 2017 Joint Implementation Work Group, which was tasked with identifying recommended revisions to the Social Studies (Grades 4-6), History (Grades 7-10) and Civics (Grade 10) curricula to increase and deepen the focus of teaching and learning about Indigenous peoples, perspectives and experiences. Several examples of OTF’s resources and tools include: Books of Life, Survive and Thrive, OTF Connects webinars, Inspire Financial Learning, Teaching Learning Co-op (TLC) projects, and Summer Institutes.
