Hands Back Hands Forward

This project explores ideas for designing a curriculum for the instruction of more than one Indigenous languages, and one or more foreign languages at the Vancouver School Board Aboriginal Focus School. I will advocate for language immersion as a model of instruction. I will describe how that traditional instruction in Aboriginal performative arts – including theatre, music, dance, and oration – can serve as a framework for teaching Indigenous languages.
