Indian Residential Schools and Reconciliation Resources - FNESC. The Indian Residential Schools and Reconciliation Teacher Resource Guides for grades 5, 10 and 11/12 were developed by the First Nations Education Steering Committee and the First Nations Schools Association. They are our response to the call by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada for education bodies to develop age-appropriate educational materials about Indian residential schools. It is our hope that these resources will help students of all cultural backgrounds gain an understanding of the history of the relationship between Indigenous and non-Indigenous people over Canada’s history, with a focus on the BC experience.
The materials are also designed to engage young people to take part in the journey of reconciliation. The units and lessons support the BC Ministry of Education curriculum learning standards. FNSA and FNESC would like to recognize the invaluable role that the Vancouver Foundation has played in its support of this project. Good Samaritan - Lessons.

30Jesus replied, ‘A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell into the hands of robbers, who stripped him, beat him, and went away, leaving him half dead. 31Now by chance a priest was going down that road; and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.
