Hall Indian Reservation teacher - where he decolonized science education and his student's developed curiosity, courage, and determination to help an endangered species.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDuring his first year of teaching on the Fort Hall Indian Reservation in Idaho, Dr. Ed Galindo noticed a problem that had burgeoned in his mind throughout his Ph.D. - the Western methods of education had little value to students on the Reservation, yet these bright and wonderful children needed a leader in their classroom to foster a love of science.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAccording to Dr. Galindo, \"To become scientists, Native American students need to recognize the importance of how science impacts their lives and how to develop a lasting interest in science.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor the Sho-Ban people, the connection between science and their own lives was salmon.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnfortunately, the salmon in the area were nowhere to be found. Generations ago, Sho-Ban families would consume as much as two tons of salmon a year. Despite modern Sho-Ban people's yearn to return to a traditional diet, there wasn't enough salmon in the area to support the shift. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEnter Dr. Galindo's great idea - a teaching method that spurred his students to action. Soon, he and his students dove into the hands-on learning and outdoor classrooms of salmon habitats. They learned about the chemistry of salmon streams to the life cycle of salmon in their desperate search for the fish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eDance of the Salmon\u003c\/em\u003e is more than an educational memoir, a teaching guide book, or a collection of stories about one teacher's specific class. It's an important narrative that demonstrates the value of meeting students where their learning needs and passions intersect and an immortalization of a class's curiosity, courage, and determination to help the salmon - but in the end, helping themselves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 154\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.42 x 8 x 5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 30, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48618670784760,"sku":"9798822935952","price":28.18,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0698\/5629\/7208\/files\/QI4g9tEcxB9798822935952.webp?v=1779846634","url":"https:\/\/barneysbooksellers.com\/products\/dance-of-the-salmon-paperback","provider":"Barney's Book Sellers","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
