Meet the 2020 Arizona Teacher of the Year, Lynette Stant — the first Native American woman to hold this position. Learn more about her experience teaching during a pandemic and her work to ensure that students’ cultures are represented in their education.

As the U.S. observes Native American Heritage Month this November, we want to support educators in celebrating the histories and contributions of past and present-day Indigenous peoples who are from what is now North America. The lessons and activities in this round-up can serve as a good starting point — not only during the month, but year-round.

Lyle from Real Native Learning resources shared his personal experience along with his work to provide all educators with accurate insight into both the modern lifestyle and rich history of Native people.
