• Place-based literacy and numeracy activities
• Outdoor experiential learning that supports student well-being
• Lessons that honour Indigenous relationships with land
• Opportunities for community–Elder involvement
• Culturally grounded reflections connecting land, identity, and belonging

Land-based learning strengthens classroom connections to place, supporting culturally grounded teaching across all grades.
