On Tuesday May 7th at 2pm ET, join Melissa Mollen Dupuis, author of bestselling book Nutshimit: In the Woods, for a live read-aloud on Storyvoice–in English and French! Make it an event for your classroom, and get prepped with these Nutshimit-themed activities:
Learn words and phrases from the book in Innu-Aimun with the Nutshimit Audio Glossary, featuring audio pronunciations, French and English translations, along with the page number you’ll find the word/phrase used.
Need an activity while you wait for your read-along? Hand out Nutshimit-inspired matching activities and match conifers to their needles and cones, or name the berries found in the Canadian wild.
Decorate your classroom with Nutshimit-themed colouring pages! Let kids choose the colours of their forest or the trees and sky, and see the different colour palettes fill your class.
Hold a quick cooking lesson before the read-aloud on Storyvoice begins by making your class your own batch of Pashimineu, or blueberry paste. Share the directions with families, so they can try it out themselves!
Using theNutshimit Teacher’s Guide, test your students’ comprehension with questions about the story.
