Let’s see how teachers are using the medicine wheel in the classroom: For too long, First Nation teachings were not invited to have a place in European education. The time has come where we can see how balanced an educational delivery can be with the understanding of the medicine wheel. It is a way to teach global thinking!

After a Medicine Wheel teachings workshop the teachers then created their own Medicine Wheels for use in their classrooms.
