I’m happy to share a lesson plan for teaching endangered Native American languages. I love languages and working in Native American language revitalization – both as a linguist and as a curriculum planner. I work with my tribal language, Acjachemem, from Southern California. In my spare time, I enjoy being active outdoors, bikes, scooters, foods, and following current events.
How do you learn a language when there are no fluent speakers? By carefully constructing detailed lessons. These lessons demonstrate language instruction that focuses on speaking and using the language in an immersion-like TPR approach.
I created three lessons, which can be downloaded below. To hear the language, visit my SoundCloud profile. To connect with me directly, visit me on Instagram.
