Native American Studies for Young Learners

Dear educators,

Native American Heritage Month is a great opportunity to highlight American Indian educational resources available throughout the year.

Use the Wisconsin First Nations website to find regional, age-appropriate resources you can use now.
Take your practice further with "Teaching Culturally with Informational Texts", a free PBS KIDS self-paced learning course.

Remember: the deadline for public library staff to apply for the PBS KIDS Community Learning Cohort is fast approaching! Learn more below.

Happy exploring!
