Culturally-Based Curriculum Resources
The curriculum resources included here
have been selected to illustrate ways in which Indigenous and Western
knowledge systems can be brought to bear in schools through a balanced,
comprehensive and culturally-aligned curriculum framework adaptable
to local circumstances. The resources are intended to help teachers
and students make the connection between the knowledge, skills
and ways of knowing used to maintain a livelihood in the villages,
and the knowledge, skills and cultural
standards for teaching and learning
reflected in the school curriculum.
The resources are cataloged
into cultural themes using the Curriculum
Spiral Chart. You can search the database using the chart
or the search engine below. Anyone wishing to contribute to this
site is encouraged to contact the ANKN Website Administrator at (907) 474-5897, or click

It cannot be over emphasized to use local Elders from your community
as a resource for education.
