Correlation: Yukon Curriculum Documents/NFCS Correlation Between the Yukon Curriculum Documents Approach to L2 Teaching and the Fundamental Components Proposed by the NFCS and Formative Assessment Toolkits 1. Does the guide refer to the development of an integrated multidimensional curriculum and how are the four major components in teaching a L2 addressed? There is no mention of the multi-dimensional curriculum as such, however, there are 4 curriculum organizers that are almost the same as the 4 components, being: communicating, acquiring information, experiencing creative works and understanding cultural influences. The curriculum organizers should be integrated in the classroom through most activities. Language - (as a means of communication, examples of language functions, language within a context, student control of language learning) The overriding aim of Core French is communication, which is important as French is one of our official languages. Therefore, the goal is to teach the practical use of the language as opposed to the analytical grammar of the language itself.

@import url(/css/advanced.css); /* 'advanced' styles, hidden from NN4 */ Beaver Creek Burwash Landing and Destruction Bay Carcross and Tagish Carmacks ... More Information The Kwanlin Dun First Nation, based in the McIntyre subdivision of Whitehorse, has cultural affiliations with the Northern and Southern Tutchone as well as with the Tagish from Marsh Lake but is also an amalgamation of many Yukon First Nation culture groups. In 2004 the registered population as reported by the Kwanlin Dun First Nation was 949. In 2004 the Ta'an Kwach'an Council reported a population of 432 registered members. The Ta'an Kwach'an Council, who separated from the Kwanlin Dun First Nation in September of 1998, are affiliated with the Southern Tutchone Tribal Council and has members who are Southern Tutchone and Tagish. The traditional territory of the Ta'an is located around the Lake Laberge area. The Ta'an Kwach'an Council signed their land claims and self-government agreements on January 13, 2002. The agreements came into effect in April 2002. Negotiators for Canada, Yukon and the Kwanlin Dun First Nation have completed negotiations of land claims and self-government agreements and these agreements will be put to a ratification vote in the fall of 2004. The First Nations people of the Whitehorse region enjoyed a nomadic way of life and traveled extensively throughout the area following big game, fishing, and trapping. Archaeological evidence at Canyon City shows that First Nation people have occupied that area for thousands of years. Many Kwanlin Dun and Ta'an Kwach'an First Nations people worked for the steamboats that navigated the Yukon River up to Dawson City. Some were woodcutters, and others worked on board. Frank Slim, from the Ta'an, was a captain of one of the steamers. The two First Nations in the area of what is now Whitehorse were grouped together as the Whitehorse Indian Band, which was located in the Industrial area of Whitehorse. They later moved to the McIntyre subdivision.

For it is the power of oral narratives - their ability to `make meaningful connections and provide order and continuity in a rapidly changing world,' to `subvert official orthodoxies and to challenge conventional ways of thinking' - that intrigues the writer and captures the reader here. Although this is an academic treatise, complete with bibliography and index, Julie Cruikshank spent many years outside the academy, and it shows. Her prose, lucid and largely jargon-free, transcends and even rebukes conventional academic discourse. That is to say, The Social Life of Stories is an example of that increasingly rare breed, an academic study that is accessible to the inquiring lay reader. Chapter 4, `Confronting Cultural Erasure: Images of Society in Klondike Gold Rush Narratives,' mesmerizes with its alternative narratives of key events associated with the Gold Rush. Making use of Harold Innis's belief that `narrative challenges hegemonic institutions,' Cruikshank argues that indigenous narratives of the Gold Rush, including the discovery of gold by Skookum Jim (Keish in oral narratives) and the trial of the Nantuck brothers for murdering a prospector in 1898, show us how Native ways of contextualizing and understanding people and their actions posed a threat to the Canadian government's territorial ambitions in the Yukon. This chapter especially should be required reading for any government or corporate employees engaged in negotiations with representatives of First Nations.

Community Training Funds Heritage Workers Preserve Our Culture The Heritage Training Fund was established in 2003 to advance the professional capacity of our heritage sector workers. "I see the Heritage Training Fund as an important investment because preserving our heritage is an important part of celebrating the Yukon," said Brent Slobodin, Director of Labour and Market Programs and Services with the Department of Education, "There is an art to preserving and maintaining artifacts and without that knowledge, important parts of Yukon history could be lost." The Heritage Training Fund has funded 17 training projects over the last year such as: community cultural stewardship, exhibit designs, new media skills for heritage/cultural content, large artifact lifting and steam locomotive conservation. Yukon's heritage workers will enhance their capacity to obtain and create employment through the Heritage Training Fund. In addition to the obvious benefits to individuals, prospective employers will be provided with a better equipped heritage labour force. Greg Skuce is a successful applicant to the Heritage Training Fund.

(Morlan ). For 10,000 to 15,000 years prior to 14,000 B.P. a harsh Arctic environment existed and it has been suggested that Beringia may have been uninhabitable (Fladmark : 22-23; Schweger et al. : 439). Between 10,000 and 8,000 B.C. and probably earlier, an Asiatic-derived Upper Palaeolithic culture spread across much of the unglaciated territory of Beringia in Alaska and the Yukon. Originally called the American Palaeo-Arctic tradition (Anderson ) the name has been changed in this work to reflect more accurately the culture's geographical position in the Western Hemisphere. Technological similarities between Northwestern Palaeo-Arctic culture and Siberian assemblages have encouraged even more inclusive designations such as the Siberian-American Paleo-Arctic tradition (Dumond ) and the Beringian tradition (West ). Also in common use is the term Denali complex (West

Yukon-Charley Rivers National Preserve This extensive area is readily accessible by boat and air. The Taylor Highway terminates in Eagle, a community of about 165 peoples, 12 river miles south of the preserve boundary. The Steese Highway terminates 161 miles east of Fairbanks at Circle, a community of about 80 people, 14 river miles north of the preserve. Land Ownership YUCH encompasses approximately 2,527,000 acres, of which about 2,148,000 acres are federal land; most of the nonfederal land is held by Doyon Ltd., the native regional corporation. Land is also held by the Eagle Village corporation and in native allotments. There are about 4000 acres in mining claims and private lands. Environment YUCH encompasses two nationally significant rivers. It contains a portion of the upper Yukon River valley, an area rich in historic, biotic, and geologic features, and the entire Charley river drainage, a National Wild and Scenic River. The Yukon river flows southeast-to-northwest through the preserve between valley walls that range from steep bluffs along high, upland benches to terraces representative of several stages of river downcutting. The preserve is within the Northern Plateau physiographic province. This province is comprised of a large wedge of intricately dissected uplands and alluvium-covered valleys. Upland areas in the southern portion of the preserve grade into a lowland belt. Major tributaries of the Yukon River include the Charley, Kandik, Seventymile, Tatonduk, and Nation rivers.

Home Services Local Businesses Land Claims ... Links Kluane Lake The Southern Tutchone name means 'big whitefish lake'. The Tlingit name ùxh-àní 'whitefish country' is the source of the English name Kluane, and the Southern Tutchone ù'àn is probably adapted from it as well. This is a good fishing lake for whitefish, trout and thì or dog salmon. The lake is the largest in the Yukon. It is deep and has dangerous boating conditions at certain times of the year. The first non-natives to try boating on Kluane, E.J. Glave and Jack Dalton, almost died in the attempt. The Alaska Highway goes along the south side of the lake and carries many travelers year-round. Did You Know? The 1903-1904 Kluane gold rush probably brought the first non-native settlers to the area. Louis and Gene Jacquot from the Alsace region of France established the trading post at Burwash Landing about 1904. Shortly after they began building cabins for the families from the upper White and Donjek River area who would stop to trade during their seasonal rounds. Eventually these families settled here. Jimmy Joe's father, Copper Joe, who died in 1943, was the one person most responsible for the move to Burwash Landing. The Aishihik people also traded at Burwash Landing. They came through Isaac and Gladstone Creeks and built huge signal fires on the shore of Kluane Lake. The traders would send a boat over to pick up the people who wished to trade. The Jacquots had forty or fifty horses which packed supplies from Whitehorse to Christmas Creek and later to Kluane from where the supplies were boated to Burwash Landing. The wagon trail, the road and finally the Alaska highway followed much of this route. The brothers also ran a sport hunting business.

Arctic Explorer Tour INTRODUCTION The Arctic Circle stirs images of desolation and foreboding, but in truth, it's merely a man-made reference. It does though, cross some of the most beautiful and fascinating lands this planet has to offer. For this journey, it serves as our "equator", dividing the portions of our exploration on both sides, as we cross back and forth to experience the farthest north inhabited regions of our hemisphere. The latitude here is paramount in the way that it has shaped the land and particularly, in the way that it has shaped the people that have done battle with it for eons. The cultures here both indigenous and Western, have all had to conform to the same merciless rules, and their stories are inextricable from the drama that is the Arctic. This tour promises a very personal insight into those dramas, from the subsistence-based Inuit peoples, to modern resource extraction, to the scattered wilderness dwellers living the timeless life of centuries past. We will venture to places that each hold a thousand stories guaranteed to spellbind, in that here, nothing is easy. Our exploration leads from the Eskimo whaling culture of Barrow to the oilfields of Prudhoe Bay to Canada's Dawson City and the Northwest Territories' Inuvik, featuring in between the fantastic Dalton and Dempster Highways, as well as the tiny outposts of Coldfoot, Eagle, and Ft. MacPherson. This journey promises a contrast of "Norths", each an intriguing story for you to ponder long afterwards.
