The Native American Education Program would like to send a special heartfelt shout-out to Ms. Lovejoy and her 1st-grade class!
I am in absolute awe of the opportunity that was shared with her class. Engaging with traditional teachings and stories is a profoundly meaningful way to honor Native American Heritage Month. In our culture, gatherings such as these are deeply valued, as they remind us of the importance of coming together, learning from one another, and celebrating the connections that unite us.
Ms. Lovejoy and her class have also been learning about numerous significant inventions and discoveries made by Indigenous Peoples—innovations such as kayaks, hammocks, gum, the game of lacrosse, corn, and maple syrup. It is remarkable to recognize how many of these contributions continue to enrich our lives today. One of her students and his family are very familiar with the process of making maple syrup, as it is a longstanding family tradition. They welcomed family members to their classroom. To prepare pancakes topped with butter and maple syrup, and to share their story. This provided the students with a fun, meaningful, firsthand learning experience!
I was also happy to hear about the use of the talking stick, which holds an important place in our own Indigenous teachings during a sharing circle. It serves as a meaningful reminder to honor each person’s voice and to listen with respect.
It is truly inspiring to see these traditions shared and upheld!
