Can the game be used to teach about Aboriginal tools?
Yes. Aboriginal Tools Memory Matching Card Game is an Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander-designed or culturally focused resource that can support the teaching of First Nations perspectives. It should be used in conjunction with other learning materials that provide appropriate cultural context and deeper learning, and educators are encouraged to seek guidance and input from their local Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander community where possible.
How can educators extend the game after students find a match?
Ask students to identify the matched tool, investigate what it was traditionally used for and compare tools designed for different purposes. Use First Nations sources and local knowledge rather than assuming tool use was identical across all Aboriginal communities.
