Indigenous History

September 30, 2020

Orange Shirt Day (September 30th) is a day when we honour the Indigenous children who were sent away to residential schools in Canada. It's also a day to learn more about the history of those schools.

What are residential schools?

Residential schools were church-run schools where approximately 150,000 Métis, Inuit and First Nations children were sent between the 1830s and the 1990s.

The schools harmed Indigenous children by removing them from their families and forcing them to speak English or French instead of their ancestral languages. They were also disconnected them from their culture and traditions and forced to adopt Christianity in order to be assimilated into Canadian society.

The government has since acknowledged that this approach was wrong, cruel and ineffective, and offered an official apology to the Indigenous people of Canada in 2008.

Why is September 30th a special date?

September 30th falls during the time of year when Indigenous children were taken away to residential school. Today, it's also known as the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.

Why is it an orange shirt?

The "orange shirt" in Orange Shirt Day refers to the new shirt that Phyllis Webstad was given to her by her grandmother for her first day of school at St. Joseph's Mission residential school in British Columbia. When Phyllis got to school, they took away her clothes, including her new shirt. It was never returned.

To Phyllis, the colour orange has always reminded her of her experiences at residential school and, as she has said, "how my feelings didn't matter, how no one cared and I felt like I was worth nothing. All of us little children were crying and no one cared."

What does Orange Shirt day represent?

The message that Phyllis wants to pass along on Orange Shirt Day - and every day - is that every child matters. Orange Shirt Day was started by Phyllis to educate people about residential schools and to fight racism and bullying.

What can you do?

There are many ways you can get involved!

Wear an orange shirt on September 30th

Read Phyllis' story "The Orange Shirt Story" with your classroom or your family. It's available in English, French and Shuswap.

Read books by Indigenous authors about residential schools.

Trace your hand and write something on it that you can do to help others feel like they matter.

Share Phyllis' story. You can watch it on YouTube or below:

This makes it easier for young minds to grasp these concepts while having fun.

App Games for iOS & Android

Draw Something - Free
Compatible with iOS and Android
Like Pictionary, this game gives you a word to draw out for other players to guess. You get many colors and tools with which to draw, but you're timed, so draw fast!

Hanging with Friends - Free
Compatible with iOS and Android
It's Words with Friends and Hangman combined. Build mystery words to confuse or impress other players and wait for them to send complicated words back to you.

Words with Friends - Free
Compatible with iOS and Android
Much like Scrabble, Words with Friends is one of the most popular iOS and Android apps available today. Try to spell out the most complex words for the most points!

Individual Online Games

In this game of anagrams, the goal is of course to create as many words as you can in a given amount of time, with a given set of letters. Points are dependent upon the length of the word, so try to find the longest words!

Like the classic Boggle game, in Boggle Bash you must try to find as many words as you can before the clock runs out. Watch out-the game jumbles the letters for the last minute of the last round!

Try to spell as many words as you can from the letters on the chickens and solve the puzzle as fast as possible. Once you guess enough words, you will fill up the empty egg rack and advance to the next round.

In this game of definitions and deception you'll pit your word knowledge against the clock! You'll be presented with a word and four alternative definitions. Choose the correct definition to move on to the next word.

With each question-on topics ranging from astronomy to The Wizard of Oz -you have the choice of answering on your own or trying to beat the clock as you search for the answer on a Smithsonian website.

Press the button to have the frog generate a word for you with his bubble machine. Then, when three other words pop out of the machine, match the ones that rhyme. If you get it right, the frog will highlight and read the words aloud to you.

Knoword is a quick thinking game that helps boost vocabulary, spelling, speed of thought, as well as increasing analytical, observational, and typing skills. The object of the game is to complete as many words as possible by guessing a word based on its definition and first letter.

Solve the math problems as they scroll to the top of the screen, one after another. Be careful, though-if you hit the top, it's game over.

Spell words and let them build off of each other with this online version of the classic game. The more complex the word, the more points you get and the more you learn!

Another anagram game (much like Word Whomp, only simpler), Word Ruffle provides you with a set of scrambled letters, from which you must find as many words as possible.

The objective of Word Stone is to form as many words as possible through moving and arranging the letter tiles before the whole grid crashes down.

Try to spell as many words as you can from a given set of letters before time runs out. The more words you unscramble, the more points and bonuses you receive.

Learning to read with phonics

If you live in England, your child will learn to read using phonics. Their school is very likely to use either the Letters and Sounds phonics framework or the Read Write Inc. programme. Check with your school if you're not sure which one they use.

Using Letters and Sounds?

If your child is using Letters and Sounds, you can find this list of eBooks by Letters and Sounds Phases useful. Bear in mind the following:

If you don't know your child's Phase, you can check with your school. As a guide, most Reception children will be on Phases 1-4 and most Year 1 children will be on Phases 4-5. Beyond Phase 5, your child will be able to decode most books.

In Letters and Sounds, there are 'sets' within the Phases - so your child might not know all the sounds in every book within their Phase.

Some series contain occasional 'tricky words' that your child can't decode using phonics. Use the inside front cover notes to teach your child these words before they start the book.

Find out more about Letters and Sounds >

Using Read Write Inc. Phonics?
If your child is being taught to read using the Read Write Inc. programme, you can find books suitable for them by clicking on the 'Levels' menu below and using the 'Read Write Inc.' filter to select the right level.
