How and Why We Learn Anishinaabemowin

This presentation consists of two parts, "The language we learn as kids is the same language we speak as adults," & "Nimikwenimaanaanig Leonard Miinawaa James." Join Alphonse Pitawanakwat, Kayla Gonyon, Dr. Cherry Meyer, and Dr. Margaret Noodin for this presentation. 

Each year many of our elders leave us to continue speaking and teaching Anishinaabemowin. This past year, two friends and fellow teachers left us. We’ll share some of the stories, phrases and lessons Leonard Kimewon and James Fox once shared with us and talk about how we’ve made them part of our classrooms. At this event we will share resources for learning Anishinaabemowin.
