For English First Peoples in Grade 8, it focuses on helping students understand Indigenous peoples ways of their stories, voices, and perspectives while keeping a respectful tone. Students learn through often storytelling, poems, books, presentations, note taking, and many more of creation from First Peoples authors. This course teaches people such as young students how stories are not necessarily just for entertainment, but it holds areas where it got passed down from ancestors.

In Grades 9 and 10, English First Peoples is encouraged by teachers to students to think more deeply about important topics like identity and resilience. They use evidence from a bunch of different texts written by Indigenous or First Peoples authors to learn how other peoples languages reflect on their culture and how storytelling can help strengthen understanding.
