Lesson 6: Social Studies – Treaty Land Entitlement.

Guiding Questions (specific to this lesson): What is treaty land entitlement?What are hunting rights?What are fishing rights?What are land claims? Why are they important?


- Formative.


Before lesson have students do a brain break. Just Dance videos. Set:

2016 Nana Fran’s Teaching Resources

- “Write the term “Treaty Land Entitlement” on the whiteboard or chart paper. Ask students what it means to them.

- Define the word entitlement as “having a right to something”. In this case it means having a right to treaty lands.

- For First Nations, Metis and Inuit people who were part of the Treaty process, measurement of land did not mean anything to them. They saw the land as being essential to life and did not think of it as being divided into sections. So, when they were assigned a number of acres per family, they did not understand it in the same way as the government did.”

Development: JIG SAW

- Students will be split into groups 4 for a Jigsaw activity. - Students will be doing research on Treaty land entitlement, hunting rights, fishing rights and land

claims.- Each group will be assigned a different topic. - Each group is responsible to write a description of their topic and how their topic affects First

Nations today. - Students will be given 10-15 minutes to do their research and write their answers down. - Note* remind students to write things in their own words. Each student is responsible to write

these down. Group 1: Treaty Land entitlement Group 2: Hunting rightsGroup 3: Fishing rightsGroup 4: Land claims.

- After the 10-15 minutes are up, we will regroup students so that there is 1 person from each group.- In these group’s students will share what topic they were researching as well as the information

they learned. It is important that all students are writing notes during this time. - Remind students that these notes will help them when they are studying for their quiz next

Thursday.

Closure:- Whip Around. Have students share one thing they learned today. Remind students they have 30 seconds max. - Have student’s hand in their notes for assessment when they are finished with their groups. *Make sure to give feedback on their notes. This way they will be prepared for test/quiz next week.”

Development: Remind students that these notes will help on their text next week,

- Students will go into groups from yesterday and continue on with their jigsaw activity. This may take some time as they did not get through very much yesterday.

- As a class we will go over the different notes that each group has. It is important that all students write down notes.

knowledge- They can write about anything that they learned during yesterday’s lesson. (ex. Hunting, rights,

claims, etc.)

Grudge Ball Review Game. 1. Split students into 4 – 5 teams 2. Each team will have a space on the board and Each team gets 10 X’s on the board. 3. Each group gets a question. If they get it right, they automatically get to erase two X's from the

board. They can take it from one team or split it. 4. Before they take off these X's, though, they have a chance to increase their ability to get the other

teams. They get to shoot a ball of paper into a trashcan. I set up two lines with masking tape. One is a two-point line while the other is a three pointer.

5. If they shoot from the two-point line and get it in, they can take four X's off the board. If they go from the three-point line, and make it in, they can take five off the board. If they don't make it, they still get to take the original two off the board.

6. I have solved some problems along the way. When a team is knocked off, I needed a way to keep them in the game. These teams still take turns. To get back on the board they need to get the question right and make the basket. If they do this, they can earn four or five X's back on the board (depending on from where they shoot). This allows them to stay involved, take part in the review and not shut down.

Closure:- Ask students if they have any questions before the test tomorrow. - Encourage students to ask questions if they have them.
