Six Cedar Trees Animals Kwak’wala and Sliammon Language Inspired by the book Six Cedar Trees by Margot LandaHl and Celestine Aleck Adapted from Shannon.Campbells@sd71.bc.ca original powerpoint, Animals from the Northwest Coast, by Lynn.Swift@sd71.bc.ca Lelaina.jules@sd71.bc.ca and Gail.martindale@sd71.bc.ca

Animal Symbolism Different animals symbolize and represent human traits, values and characteristics. On many totem poles, animals often represent families crests or clans and are used to tell a story.

Language Two cultures are identified in the K’omoks First Nation community: Coast Salish (Island-Comox speaking peoples) and Kwakwaka'wakw (Kwak̓’wala speaking peoples). Sliammon is one of the Coast Salish Languages. Traditionally the K’omoks First Nation territory is Coast Salish Territory and the original language spoken in this area is Pentlatch. There are no fluent Pentlatch speakers in this territory, today. The most similar language spoken today is Sliammon from Powell River. *language information is as we understand it at this time. Please check in periodically to see if our understandings have changed or if you have information to help improve our understanding.

Namwayut we are all one all living things are connected Using the philosophy of namwayut and the book Six Cedar Trees we see an example of combining worldviews and principles from the environment and land we live. The core competencies guide teachers in the importance of social and emotional learning with our students and this connects directly to the First Peoples Principles of Learning. Animal symbolism, in some form, and/or all connection to the land, guides how many Indigenous people have lived with this land for thousands of years in relationship to all living things. The animals represented here are some of the northwest coast animals and are important to many of the people who live in this area. The descriptors are generalized and not specific to one culture. The meanings are important to an individual as well as families and groups. we are all one all living things are connected
