Our Wanuskewin Trip & Thanks to Muveddet Al-Katib

On September 24th our class had the opportunity to tour Wanuskewin Heritage Park (www.wanuskewin.com). We learned about First Nations` technology and how the local groups adapted to the climate. We also toured the local site which has been frequented by Indigenous groups for at least the last 6,000 years. Towards the end of the day, the students had the chance to learn about and participate in traditional First Nations` games.

During our trip to Wanuskewin, local artist Mrs. Muveddet Al-Katib and mother of Karem, led our group through a landscape art project. Our class would like to extend a special thank you to her for organizing and leading our class in this project. You can learn more about Mrs. Al-Katib`s work at www.muveddetalkatib.com.
