This week I’ve chosen to make Bannock. Bannock is a traditional food of many Indigenous cultures in North America including the Métis. I am a Métis person but I haven’t made Bannock that much. This could be for multiple reasons but the biggest reason for this is because my family members that came before me went “underground”. What I mean by this is they were forced to leave some of their traditional ways of being, in order to be accepted by Canadians. Things that are passed down through families like food are often no longer being taught anymore another example of this is Métis language that is known as “Michif”. I wanted to get the recipe for Bannock from a reputable source so I chose a website which represents that.

I chose to document my learning with iMovie. I movie was an extremely easy resource to use. I took videos on my phone, then went into the app and placed the videos in the order that I wanted. From here, I made it into a youtube video and uploaded it to the blog. This app also gives people the opportunity to make storyboards, and trailers. I found a great resource that helped me create my iMovie and it was a great help with creating this video.

Anyways here is how I made Bannock
