Editor's Notes
20 Miles North of Thompson
We got to sleep in the teepee this year! Tell story of being smoked out the first night and how I asked The TeePee builder Rob _____________ to come teach us how to use the teepee flaps. lol
1st day was set up
SETTING UP TENTS
COOKING
SERVING
WOOD CUTTING
To keep our main campfire going and of course our tents and teepees
WE HAD GRADE 5 STUDENTS FROM 3 DIFFERENT SCHOOLS IN THOMPSON
OUR REASON FOR BEING THERE
Medicine wheel- meet and give the student a little bit of history about mile 20
They used ivory soap to mimic carving with real soapstone.
Anyone can use this as one of the traditional teachings for art, I’m sure Mr. Davies would go to your classroom or any local artist.
Caroline shows some of the medicines that she knows. One of my students got some home remedy for a bee sting! Ouch!
Emily found out the hard way that Caroline’s medicines work, she got stung by a wasp!
Martha talks about the past, residential school. Waboden area
Mrs. Dumas talked about Pesim Finds her Miskanow, a book written by Mr. Dumas and she developed a lesson planner for, geared towards grade 5. SIL
This is the teepee my students set up

An old Sweat Lodge site. There were also medicine wheels, old Fasting Lodges, and something that wasn’t there last year- a prayer arbor?
BACK to the medicine wheel to say our good-byes
