This Web site has excellent articles in the "Nunavut99" section. They are a bit long for grade 4 students, so teachers need to provide direction about which sections for students to focus on and which topics to research. The articles are written in quite an accessible style for Grade 5 and 6 students and do expand on the topics introduced in the History section of InfoCanada Nunavut . "What's In A Name" is particularly good at providing a personal voice to growing up as an Inuit in the 1950s and 1960s in the Canadian north. This article would be a good starting point for a discussion of the impact of the Canadian government and development on the peoples of the arctic.
