Lesson Resources

The UFLI Foundations Toolbox contains all the lesson resources to accompany the lesson plans provided in the UFLI Foundations manual. (Don’t have a manual yet? Click here to order one) Every lesson has companion resources that will help you implement the lessons efficiently, effectively, and consistently.
Some of the companion lesson resources you will find below include:

Lesson slide decks (in PowerPoint and Google Slide formats)
Decodable passages
Homework sheets
Games and activities for additional practice
We have grouped the lessons into smaller units so you can access these resources more easily. Scroll down to use the buttons below to find the resources for each lesson or groups of lessons.

Please note that we are still building out these free resources, and we will be editing this page over the next few weeks. We wanted you to be able to access some materials as soon as possible, but be sure to come back later to see the rest!

Voices from the Land portal, which contains resources about First Nations and Inuit peoples across Québec for non-Indigenous educators. The portal was created to ensure that Indigenous history and perspectives are adequately represented in provincial school programming. Educators can use Voices from the Land to find tools and lesson plans; teaching tips on cultures, values, and languages; and pedagogical materials for different grade levels. The portal also offers educators the opportunity to connect with First Nations and Inuit Knowledge Keepers. “Developed from the perspective of First Nations, Voices from the Land provides trusted resources to facilitate the integration of First Nations content into the provincial curriculum and will be a powerful tool for non-Indigenous teachers and educators to bring Indigenous culture into their classrooms,” said FNEC Director General Denis Gros-Louis.

Resources for Indigenous Languages in the Atlantic Provinces
Many Indigenous Nations have territory within the four Atlantic Provinces (Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and Newfoundland and Labrador). These Indigenous Nations include: Inuit, Innu, Peskotomuhkati, Wolastoq, and Mi’kmaq. There will be resources for each language listed here.

The resource list is in its early stages of development and is not exhaustive or complete. For community based and online courses we will only list classes that we have permission of the instructors to share here on the website. Likewise we only list language professionals who are members of our network and who have given us permission to put their information on our website.

As our knowledge, references, and relations grow so will the webpage!
