My Last Blog Post for EDUC 406

Métis Jigging & Métis Fiddling

I want to end my blog with a wish for the future.
I always admire my sister Cherie’s talents and her passion for our Métis culture. Cherie is a beautiful Métis Jigger. When she dances you can tell that she is very passionate by the expressions in her face and her body movements. Cherie also loves to the play the fiddle, which always bring excitement in my family’s life.

My wish for the future is to learn how to jig and play the fiddle. The Bachelor of Education program has been an experience of a life time. I am so happy that I was selected for the 2007-2009 cohort. But I am excited to see it come to an end, so I can have my ME time back again and re-enter my creative journey.

I feel that I am very artistic and I have a wide range of knowledge of visual arts and performing arts, but my experiences is limited in the areas of music and dance. My goal is to learn how to jig and play the fiddle after graduation because these skills would be essential and beneficial as a teacher and for my curriculum. As well as bring personal satisfaction that I tried something new.
Thank you again for the experience of discovering my own creative works.

I would also like to thank Donna Campbell for following my blog. Your interest means the world to me.
