WHITEHORSE - The Department of Education is pleased to announce the release of new curriculum materials, Yukon First Nations 5 , which covers four themes: Yukon First Nations Languages, Clans, Citizenship and Governance, and will be used in all Yukon Grade 5 Social Studies classes this year.
"Developing Yukon First Nations 5 is part of our commitment to develop locally and culturally relevant courses of study for all Yukon students to enjoy," Minister of Education Patrick Rouble said. "It also reflects the positive things we can accomplish when we work in partnership with First Nations."

As Iread this article, I was thinking, I wonder how knowledgeable the teachers are, the ones who will be teaching these four themes. I am aware of the fact that the provincial government in the Yukon does not have many First Nations teachers in their schools in Whitehorse. Will that have an impact on the deliver of this new curriculum?
The Yukon First Nations people have so much culture. They still practise Potlatch ceremony, Naming ceremony, Stick gambling (Hand Games), Smoking Ceremony, some that a lot of people may not even know. Will the teachers have to experience these ceremonies so that they have a better understanding of how to teach it to their students in the classroom?
