The YouTube video "The Jerry Cans - Ukiuq" showcases a dynamic folk song performed in Inuktitut, the Indigenous language of the Inuit people. The music video offers a unique opportunity to explore Indigenous culture through its energetic rhythm and expressive storytelling with vibrant visuals. This engaging piece highlights the importance of preserving and celebrating indigenous languages and traditions in a modern context. If your district blocks YouTube, then the video may not be viewable.

tag(s): cultures (170), native americans (108)

In the Classroom

Watch the video without subtitles and encourage students to guess the lyrics based on the visuals and tone of the song. Afterward, replay the video with captions enabled to reveal the actual lyrics, sparking discussions about cultural expressions, language diversity, and the importance of preserving indigenous traditions. Assign small groups to research the Inuit culture, focusing on their traditions, history, or current efforts to preserve their language and way of life. Each group can creatively present their findings, such as a skit or a short essay. After watching the video, have students create a short storyboard using a resource such as Story Maps, reviewed here or a drawing inspired by the visuals they saw. Ask them to interpret what story the video is telling and how the imagery connects to the song's mood and themes.

The Khan Academy page on The Silk Road explains the importance of this ancient trade route that connected the East and West. It describes how goods, ideas, cultures, and religions were shared across different regions. The page includes easy-to-understand text, maps, and pictures to make learning fun and clear.

Divide students into groups to design a mock museum exhibit about the Silk Road. Each group focuses on one aspect: trade goods, religions, technology, or geography. Use digital maps or printed maps to trace the routes of the Silk Road. Have students identify key cities, trade items, and geographical challenges. To enhance learning they can use an online tool such as Google My Maps, reviewed here.
