I don't know about you, but I feel like there's been a lack of good quality non-fiction books on Indigenous culture, particularly that have authentic text. By authentic I mean that the author has a connection to the community they are writing about, or that the author themselves is Indigenous. SO, I have fallen in love with this series by Beech Street Books. They're bright, informative and all the authors and content consultants (to my knowledge) have a strong and respectful community connection. The best thing about these are that they're for Grades 2-6ish. They're perfect for inquiry or research projects.
To help you along with your primary and intermediate classes, I've created a powerpoint lesson for you to use. This Non-Fiction Text Features lesson teaches your students how to read, understand and find information in primary non-fiction books. Download the PowerPoint here
