ART OF CANADA’S FIRST NATION: Of Spirits & 

Shamans 

DV0159,DV DVD 

30 min JI 2005 NoDup 

Long before the whitemen came to build their homes 

within Canada an entirely different world existed here, 

complete with its own culture and art. The meaning of the 

word "Art" held a different understanding to the Canadian 

Natives than it did for Europeans. The general belief 

among Europeans was that Art meant paintings of people, 

settings or scenery and were to be found on canvas or 

board within churches, government buildings, galleries or 

homes. As well, Europeans appraised art attempting to 

establish a monetary value. To the Canadian Native, art 

was everywhere around him. It was in his shelter, utensils, 

clothing, canoes, ceremonial garbs, and on his body and 

face. To the Native then, Art was as important as hunting 

and fishing. Here in this DVD students view everything 

from snowshoes to masks, to totem poles to clothing. This 

and much more is Native Art.

take stock of their actions and to find ways to end peer 

abuse.

in real-life language interaction. Each story contains a 

real-life theme (sports, ordering snacks & meals, clowns 

& emotions, emergencies, etc). Included in each kit

Teacher’s guides. These thematic short stories are the

Joseph is among the greatest of the Old Testament

Samson and David – Joseph is not a warrior. His 

heroism is demonstrated through simple expressions 

of courage and faith in God. The story begins when 

Joseph is just a boy. His brothers are jealous 

because Joseph is his father’s favourite and so they 

decide to sell Joseph into slavery in Egypt. Joseph 

faces many difficulties, but his gift for interpreting 

dreams eventually puts him in good standing with 

Egypt’s ruler. Ultimately he finds himself in a 

position of power, a position that would allow him 

to take revenge against his brothers. Instead he 

forgives them, thus the tale ends on a note of hope 

and offers an uplifting moral message to viewers of
