This module has
been developed for grade 9 level students in Nunavut schools based on
learning competencies identified in the WNCP social
studies curriculum. The module provides study into the theme of Inuit
identity with a focus on Inuit spirituality, specifically amongst
the Netsilingmiut of the Boothia Peninsula area. The module draws extensively
on a website developed collaboratively by IHT, Taloyoak elders and students,
and archaeologists who worked at a number of important dig sites including
the Thunder House site. We suggest that it
be accompanied by viewing videos from the Netsilik Eskimo Series available
from the National Film Board. Taken Together, students will be able to
gain a rich sense of traditional life in Inuit society.
