dc.description.abstractThis project is created to support Indigenous language teachers, especially those across the Northwest Territories. But really, it can be used by anyone. I have created this project from the few resources developed by the Government of Northwest Territories (GNWT), such as: the Our Languages Curriculum, Our Languages: Teacher Guide, and the Dene Kede Curriculum. I decided to create this Unit Plan as a way to demonstrate to other language teachers how they can utilize the resources that we are expected to follow when teaching our Indigenous languages to our students and families. We have access to these amazing resources but do not have detailed lesson plans that we are able to follow. I have been a teacher since 2019 and had not had prior teaching experiences in which I was teaching language. I had to develop my own lesson plans and did not have any guides or plans to follow. This made it difficult to teach and I often felt as though my students were not grasping the language as I hoped they would. Going through this program has allowed me to find valuable resources and discover new methods that I incorporated within my project to help make teaching Indigenous languages easier, fun, and engaging for our students. This project is not only for the school it can be used by anyone, including, families that want to regain language in the home.
