Book (Kids) - Four Winds
Qelmúcw experiences the power of a learning journey using perseverance and courage. He discovers that for meaningful learning to happen he needs to find balance or he could be blown off his learning journey, or even worse, not be completely open to his learning.
This story reflects the reciprocal learning and understanding relationship between a human being and all life and elements (all of relations). It models and reflects the importance of First Peoples’ Principles of Learning: learning is holistic, reflexive, experiential, and relational; learning involves the consequences of one’s actions; learning is embedded in story; and learning involves patience and time. Learning from Indigenous stories can be different and personal every time a story is read or told, depending on context.
