The aim of this project is to provide resources and curricula to the Waunakee school district in order to guide and assist in teaching about Ho-Chunk culture, ecology, and history. This project has been developed through collaboration among representatives from Ho-Chunk Nation, the Village of Waunakee, and the Nelson Institute for Environmental Studies at UW-Madison. As a part of the UniverCity Year project in Waunakee, this project promotes Waunakee’s goals of developing social justice, racial equity, and inclusion and community civility. Specifically, this project compiles educational resources, suggested educational programming, and lesson plans that are based on the UniverCity 2017 Monona collaboration (Emily Schroeder contact). Please contact Jessie Conaway formore details and with questions.
