Travel back in time to experience Anishinaabe culture, community and teachings in Minecraft: Education Edition.
The land we live on has always been an integral part of our learning. It’s a place that connects all of us together.
For Centuries the Anishinaabeg and other Indigenous Peoples have been caretakers of this land and hold valuable and rich knowledge for us to understand.
Manito Ahbee Aki: The place where the Creator sits, is a Minecraft world that blends the Anishinaabe Worldview with technology allowing your class to learn about the Anishinaabe Worldview through an Anishinaabe lens and knowledge.
We invite you and your Grade 3-8 classroom, to join us for this 90-minute lesson. We’ll explore the 7 Grandfather teachings, understanding the story of Turtle Island and explore Manito Ahbee Aki to learn from our Elders and knowledge Keepers.
