The purpose of these documents is to support the delivery of educational programming related to Mi’kwite’tmn (Do You Remember). Discussion questions and activities are based on cultural, historical and contemporary art contexts through which the work may be examined. Questions, prompts and activities facilitate engagement with the content of the exhibition and encourage viewers to make connections between the work and their own experiences.

Audience & Format

This education kit has been divided into sections allowing educators to choose which materials are best suited for their students or participants. A glossary of specialised terms is included as well to help explain and give context for some new or potentially challenging vocabulary. Activities may be adapted for different age levels and intergenerational audiences.

Please also see the Supplementary Information section for videos and supplementary information about the exhibition.

Terms that are in the glossary are underlined the first time they appear in each section. Pronunciations for Mi’kmaw words are according to the Smith-Francis orthography.
