Welcome to Victor School's IEFA Book Club #3 for
the 2009-2010 School Year
Sports
This blog was designed to help build background knowledge, bring ideas together and to help bring IEFA alive for educators. Victor School is dedicated to bringing the truth to our students. Teachers who implememnt IEFA into the classroom, continue to build background knowledge, and who seek out connection with tribal people are so greatly appreciate at our school.
In this blog session educators will be reading three different books (Full Court Quest: The Girls from Fort Shaw Indian School Basketball, Jim Thorpe, Original All-American by Joseph Bruchac, and Counting Coup: A True Story of Basketball and Honor on the Little Big Horn by Larry Colton). Bloggers will look at perspectives presented in the books, accuracy of information presented, and how the books relate to the essential understandings of IEFA.
Educators will be asked to post over a two month period. Every week a new question or two will be presented. You will need to reponsed to each question and comment on others posts in order to recieve OPI credit (9 renewal credits) and your stipend. The book club will meet when school begins to have a full discussion and turn in books, packet, and one page reponse paper for each book.
Can't wait to see you on the blog trail and read your ideas, thoughts, and conversations!
