NFB teaching guide : North Star.NF4-50/2023E-PDF

"The five-episode NFB series North Star is a fascinating look at the life of Laurie Rousseau-Nepton, a Canadian astronomer from the Innu Nation. Viewers learn about many concepts in astronomy while gaining awareness of the ways in which science and Indigenous cultures connect via oral tradition and observations made in nature. The protagonist’s journey can also prompt young people to think about questions of identity from a personal and professional growth perspective. Given that the series covers a wealth of topics, this guide presents activities for each episode that can be done in Science class, plus other activities for other subjects, and also offers ideas for cross-disciplinary assignments"--page 3.
