Resource Highlight: Virtual STEM Storytime: National Day for Truth and Reconciliation

Written By Rebecca LaRocque

During this live storytime session suitable for K-3 students, Elder Dr. Albert Marshall and Louise Zimanyi will read their co-authored story, Walking Together. Afterwards, they’ll discuss the teachings in the book, then guide students through a hands-on poster craft, advocating for the plants and animals in the story. 


Teachers will need to create a Let’s Talk Science account and register here for the session ahead of time. This session will not be recorded and must be viewed live.
