Beginners' program committee : Sir Alexander Mackenzie School, Inuvik, N.W.T. / Chairman: D.W. Hepburn ... [et al.] ; Editor: M.F. Gaynor.: R44-93/1964E-PDF
"During the first weeks after school opening, teachers who are new to the north and to teaching Indian and Eskimo beginning pupils are often somewhat bewildered by the new challenge facing them. Approaches and methods which have been highly successful with English-speaking children in a middle-class southern Canadian setting do not adequately meet the needs and interests of children from vastly different socioeconomic and cultural backgrounds. To help both new teachers and beginning pupils alike in the difficult first days at school, several teachers at Inuvik developed this Beginner's Program during the 1959-60 school year. The teachers report that this program has met with successes and failures and have included their suggestions on how they would modify the program in succeeding years"--Foreword.
