The Department of Education is pleased to announce the launch of a new online early learning resources section on the Government of Nunavut website. This online section features a wide range of culturally and linguistically appropriate early learning resources already in use at licensed child care centres, now freely accessible to parents, caregivers, the public and community organizations. Several resources were developed in collaboration with the Qikiqtani Inuit Association.
This new resource section supports early learning at home and in the community, in line with the goals of the Nunavut Early Learning and Child Care Quality Framework. Resources include storybooks, audiobooks, teaching materials, videos, music and tools like the Move your Bodies! physical education video series that can provide fun at home, or skill-building resources such as the Early Learning Pre-Printing Skills Book for early Inuktut printing skills.
This initiative supports the Katujjiluta mandate's commitment to reinvesting in education towards the outcome of strong childhood foundations for Inuit identity, resilience and learning over time. New resources will be added as they are developed, and everyone is encouraged to check back often for updates and new developments.
To access the new early learning resources section, visit the Department of Education's page on the Government of Nunavut website at: https://www.gov.nu.ca/en/education-and-schools/elcc-resource-directory.
