She:kon Sewakwekon (Greetings everyone):
Well we have finally wrapped up 2016-17 and moved into 2017-18 fiscal year!
It is very exciting for ONLC to announce some very good news about the Ontario budget.
The Ontario Native Literacy Coalition (ONLC) is delighted that the 2017 Ontario Budget
provides greater opportunities for Ontarians to train and upgrade their skills and education.
The introduction of the Ontario Lifelong Learning and Skills Plan represents a substantial new
commitment to adult learners and workers in Ontario.
ONLC congratulates Premier of Ontario Kathleen Wynne and Deputy Premier and Minister
of Advanced Education and Skills Development Deb Matthews for their strong leadership in
recognizing the value of literacy, numeracy, and digital skills as key elements in building a
highly skilled workforce.
ONLC looks forward to working with government staff on expanding and improving the
Literacy and Basic Skills program and enhancing the broader adult education system to ensure
the we address the increasing demand for accessible, good-quality, and innovative services.
ONLC will also like to inform our membership on the exciting new initiatives for this fiscal
year.
ONLC has received a grant from New Horizons for Seniors to which we have sent out a
request for participation from all our programs. Each program will be compensated for your
participation in which ONLC hopes to develop a new learning material with your input. This
project is entitled “Sharing their Words.”
ONLC will also be developing a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math program
this year with Indigenous knowledge imbedded into the material. ONLC will be seeking three
pilot sites for this program. If you are interested, please send ONLC an email.
The ONLC conference and AGM is fast approaching and is scheduled for June 15-17, 2017
at Brescia University College of Western University in London, ON. Once again this year the
conference is being co-sponsored by Laubach Literacy Ontario. Preliminary planning has
shown a positive response to the calls for presenters with several very interesting workshops
scheduled.
ONLC is very pleased to inform all, of the recent release of the 2016 LBS Program
Evaluation report available on the EOPG. The report sheds a positive light on LBS programs
throughout Ontario. There are also some key findings to which I am certain will insight
changes within the provincial LBS programs. ONLC has not yet put a complete report together
in response to this report but when it is completed, will send each of you a copy.
I would like to once again request to all programs to send in your updates on key events at
your centres to share with your colleagues. Through your sharing each of the programs can
also grow.
ONLC hopes all the new resources have arrived at each of your programs and can be used
to further the successes of your students.
So, from ONLC, good luck in 2017-18. If we can help in any way, please do not hesitate to
contact us.

Science, Technology, Engineering & Math (STEM) in LBS
Science Literacy plays an important role in our everyday
living, whether we are aware of it or not. The way we
process information and make decisions about our
health and well-being, our environment around us, or
global issues we are faced with, takes science literacy
skills.
Scientific literacy is the
knowledge and understanding
of scientific concepts and
processes required for
personal decision making,
participation in civic and
cultural affairs, and economic
productivity".
Science can be combined with
technology, engineering and math, in some
curriculum known as STEM, and has become
increasingly important with the advancements in
our world and how we live today.
Science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) can be a great
learning platform to build critical skills for learning how to research and
problem-solve. Doing science develops the ability to ask questions, organize
and test ideas, and apply what has been learned.
SCIENCE IS ALL AROUND

History and geography—understanding time periods in history and societies involves learning
about scientific innovations and technology used during those periods.

Art, dance and music—science allows us to understand how we hear music, how our bodies move
with dance and how our eyes see art.

Updates from MAESD
April 2017—Evaluation of the Literacy and Basic Skills (LBS) Program - Final Report
In late 2015 the Ministry of Advanced Education and Skills Development (MAESD) hired an independent consulting firm,
Cathexis Consulting Inc., to undertake an evaluation of the Literacy and Basic Skills program (LBS). Since 2012, MAESD has
introduced a number of significant changes to LBS, in particular: the implementation of the Ontario Adult Literacy
Curriculum Framework (OALCF) and the LBS performance management framework, as well as further development of the
distance learning component. The evaluation sought to understand the impact of these changes on the delivery of LBS and
on participant outcomes.

How the Rainbow Was Made
A Creation Tale from the Ojibwe Nation
retold by S. E. Schlosser
One day when the earth was new, Nanabozho looked out the window of his house beside the wide waterfall and realized that all of the flowers
in his meadow were exactly the same off-white color. How boring! He decided to make a change, so he gathered up his paints and his
paintbrushes and went out to the meadow.
Nanabozho sat down in the tall grass and arranged his red and orange and yellow and green and blue and violet paint pots next to him. Then he
began to paint the flowers in his meadow in many different colors. He painted the violets dark blue and the tiger lilies orange with brown dots.
He made the roses red and pink and purple. He painted the pansies in every color combination he could think of. Then he painted every single
daffodil bright yellow. Nanabozho hummed happily to himself as he worked in the brilliant daylight provided by Brother Sun.
Overhead, two little bluebirds were playing games with each other. The first little bluebird would chase his friend across the meadow one way.
Then they would turn around and the second bluebird would chase him back the other way. Zippity-zip went the first bluebird as he raced across
the sky. Zappity-zing went the second bluebird as he chased him in the brilliant sunshine.
Occasionally, Nanabozho would shade his eyes and look up…up into the endless blue sky to watch the two little birds playing. Then he went
back to work, painting yellow centers in the white daisies. Above him, the two birds decided to see how fast they could dive down to the green
fields below them. The first bluebird sailed down and down, and then pulled himself up sharply just before he touched the ground. As he soared
passed Nanabozho, his right wing dipped into the red paint pot. When the second bluebird dove toward the grass, his left wing grazed the
orange paint pot.
Nanabozho scolded the two birds, but they kept up their game, diving down toward the grass where he sat painting and then flying back up into
the sky. Soon their feet and feathers were covered with paint of all colors. Finally Nanabozho stood up and waved his arms to shoo the birds
away.
Reluctantly, the bluebirds flew away from Nanabozho and his paint pots, looking for another game to play. They started chasing each other
again, sailing this way and that over top of the giant waterfall that stood next to Nanabozho's house. Zippity-zip, the first bluebird flew through
the misty spray of the waterfall. The first bluebird left a long red paint streak against the sky. Zappity-zing, the second bluebird chased his friend
through the mist, leaving an orange paint streak. Then the birds turned to go back the other way. This time, the first bluebird left a yellow paint
streak and the second left a pretty blue-violet paint streak. As they raced back and forth, the colors grew more vivid. When Brother Sun shone
on the colors, they sparkled radiantly through the mist of the waterfall.
Below them, Nanabozho looked up in delight when the brilliant colors spilled over his meadow. A gorgeous arch of red and orange and yellow
and green and blue and violet shimmered in the sky above the waterfall. Nanabozho smiled at the funny little bluebirds and said: "You have
made a rainbow!"
Nanabozho was so pleased that he left the rainbow permanently floating above his waterfall, its colors shimmering in the sunshine and the
misting water. From that day to this, whenever Brother Sun shines his light on the rain or the mist, a beautiful rainbow forms. It is a reflection of
the mighty rainbow that still stands over the waterfall at Nanabozho's house.
