Truth and Reconciliation Weeks: September 23 - October 3, 2024
Truth and Reconciliation Week, which includes the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation on September 30, also known as Orange Shirt Day, provides an opportunity for schools and communities to come together in the spirit of reconciliation and hope for generations of children to come. It is a time to spread awareness of and reflect on the tragedies experienced as a result of the residential school system.

Along with an interactive map, there is a teacher’s guide and lesson plans that explore three survivors’ stories.
Browse excerpts from the Indigenous Peoples Atlas of Canada (autochtones du Canada) and pair them with an activity from our teacher’s guide for a powerful lesson on the history of Indigenous Peoples in Canada. A tiled map is also available.
