Grading Required
With a school counselor or, when appropriate, an Indigenous or community cultural leader, students discuss respectful approaches to symbolism, personal meaning, and limits around cultural claims. Students then draft a short identity map naming possible spirit-animal traits, personal experiences, and symbols they can support with real meaning rather than stereotypes. In small groups, they share one draft idea, receive feedback from 2 peers, and revise their trait-language for clarity and respect.
