What is Indigenous Peoples Day and how is it celebrated? In this class, we will talk about what Indigenous Peoples Day is and why it is celebrated in many places throughout the United States. I will use a PowerPoint presentation to show pictures of Indigenous peoples in the U.S. as well as pictures of Indigenous Peoples Day celebrations. We will talk about what you can do to celebrate and learn more. We will watch a video or two about different celebrations around the country, as well as a music video by Native musicians. If we have time, we will read a picture book by a Native author. I will post additional resources in the classroom after class. This class is taught by an Indigenous person. (This class is for younger students. There is also one for older students if you are outside this age range.)

Parental Guidance
The focus of this class is on the holiday Indigenous Peoples Day in the United States. Since it exists as a replacement for Columbus Day, we will briefly talk about why many Natives want to get rid of Columbus Day. There will not be much detail, but I will mention that he didn't discover the Americas, he did harmful things to the Taino, and many Natives died or were enslaved. It will all be kept simple and age appropriate.
Depending on the children's book I read, it may include mentions of slavery, land theft, reservations, poverty, and harm by the US government. They are all brief mentions in a poetic style to explain how Native peoples have survived and persevered and are still here today. If you have any questions, please feel free to message me and ask.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I am a citizen of the Lipan Apache Tribe of Texas. I have been teaching about Native peoples, past and present, for many years. My children and I have been hired at museums, schools, historical sites, and libraries over the years to teach students from pre-school to adult ESL, as well as teaching teachers how to accurately teach about us. I love teaching children about Native peoples. Truthful education about us is important and I love to help people of all ages learn accurate information. Indigenous Peoples Day is a holiday my family and I have spent years advocating for in several different cities and we continue to push for a federal holiday. Reviews
