It is challenging and hard today to teach Anishnaabemowin when there are so few curriculum materials and resources out there for our native language classrooms. When we look back we can see how far we've come and see the amount of work our Native Language Instructors have produced! We just need to keep doing what we are doing with our Native languages. We wish to extend our congratulations to all the students who successfully completed their program this past summer. Best wishes in your endeavors. ,, A reminder to the students who need to do their ''teaching experience , if you have not yet made arrangements with a school, you should start seeking a placement soon. Don't forget to get your practice teaching forms filled in and signed by the appropriate school official and send the form in to the NLIP office. Students who have already taken Year 4 should be certain to register and complete their assignments for ED 1599 Winter Practicum as soon as possible and send them in to the NLIP office in order to receive the Native As A Second Language Diploma at the Spring 2002 Convocation exercises. If you have any questions concerning your practicum, please to not hesitate to call. Our planning is underway once again for the summer session 2002. Dates for the 2002 NLIP session are July 2 to July 26, 2002. Student evaluation of the program conducted in July 2001 indicated that students requested names and addresses and phone numbers of fellow NLIP students for sharing purposes. We are unable to provide these because of the Freedom of Information Act, which prevents us from divulging such information in this newsletter.

At that time we told you that we would update you on the situation if and when we heard anything. While the news is that there is no news, here is what we know so far. According to Dr. Anthony Bartley, our Lokehead University Faculty of Education representative to the Ministry of Education meetings on Teacher Testing, there is not much to report because there has been a news blackout on this issue until the legislation is passed sometime in January of 2002. Dr. Bartley says, however, that the focus of testing will probably be on teachers seeking regular certification and not teachers applying for "restricted certificates" such as the ones for teaching the Native languages as a second language. But he goes on to warn that this is his opinion and that nothing has been said directly or officially to support or refute it. We have since learned from Lucy McCartney, an Ontario Ministry of Education (OME) employee who sits on the Ontario Teaching Testing Project Advisory Committee, that the bill is in its 3rd reading and testing will definitely take place in Spring 2002. McCartney also said that they have not yet defined which categories of student teachers the legislation will affect. When we consulted with Keith Lickers, an Education Officer in the Curriculum and Assessment Policy Branch of the OME, he could not say whether or not NLIP students will have to take the test, but he did provide details on the test itself. Here is what he said: Native Language in Ontario Vol. 12, No. 3 11 �ONTARIO TEACHER QUALIFYING TEST IT'S PURPOSE: It will test student teachers skills in classroom management, teacher strategies, and problem solving. WHAT IT WILL INVOLVE: It is a 3-hour test comprising scenario and multiple-choice questions. Test will be marked by Ontario teachers and faculty staff. The test is not focused on specific subjects. WHAT HAS HAPPENED SO FAR: It was pilot tested in October 2001 and will be field-tested with volunteers in December 2001 and January 2002. The first real tests will be administered April 27, 2002.

The first two are virtually complete and ready for printing. The third is currently being developed. It is the intent of the Ministry to have them printed and distributed this school year. The resource guides are supplementary and complementary to the Native Language policy documents for Grades 1 to 12 that have already been released to schools. The resource guides are an effort by linguists and fluent speakers of the Native languages to produce a significant resource for language development. The Native language program, as outlined in the curriculum policy documents, focuses on the communicative aspect of language. Effective communication depends on accuracy and clarity of expression. Therefore, grammatical accuracy is emphasized which makes the new resource guides an important support of the program. This project has presented a real challenge in that no grammar publications for any of the Native languages taught in Ontario are available - which partly explains why the project has been so long in development. The release of these resource guides will complete the Native Language program as part of the new Ontario curriculum Native Language in Ontario Vol. 12, No. 3 14 �IMMERSION PROGRAMS Boozhoo aaniin, Sam Senecal ndiznikaaz, Bakting doonjibaa, Ojibwe Cultural Foundation naakiiyan as the Anishinaabemowin Program Director.

PAW.AS TUN PES IM Native Language in Ontario Vol. 12, No. 3 19 �LANGUAGE ANV LEARNING REFLECTIONS BY: Ar-n,ol.d;p. I�� August 1992 The following essay is a reflection on the nature of language and the nature of the learner. In the process I collected on the experiences I have encountered throughout my lifetime and what I have had the pleasure of discovering in my linguistics classes at Lake.head University in the summer of 1992. As an Ojivway from the Rama First Nation, I spent the first years of my life on an Indian reserve along with my own nationality. I can remember those days as a child with my family and community members speaking and playing in the native tongue. My grandmother would always speak to my brother and I using the Ojibwe language. She would use it in everyday life, with legends and stories during the winter months and before bedtime. To me, it was the most beautiful and descriptive language I had ever heard. I am sure that my person from another nationality would say the same thing about their language. Anyway, this would not be hard to understand as it is my first language and the only other language I had to compare it to was English, which I understand is a borrowed language. It was not until the early sixties that I was ushered off to a non-native School and environment in the nearby town of Orillia, Ontario, which at the time had a population of about 13,000. I was not totally foreign to the new language, but now I was learning and doing everything in English for the better part of every day. Suddenly things were different, structured, not as much fun. Physical punishment was now the new way of doing business and it was not uncommon to see the native youngsters lined up outside the Principal's office waiting to get the strap for being ourselves. After a few years, I began to realize that we were using less and less of the Native language. It was not up until 1984 that we as a community started to do something about the problem by sending people to Lake.head University to receive some learning and training skills. I was the first person from our community to take the course. Then the following year, another three came as well, all of who are working with the language in some form or another today. There was and is a real feeling of loss of identity and heritage within us. I was one of those people who was genuinely concerned and who took a positive step to rejuvenate the language, not only by increasing any knowledge of the language, but by encouraging others to speak and learn to teach. Also, it was through my initiative that a language program was in the daycare center. I believed the language had to be protected from the outside world; it had to be pure again. I also knew that the words were different from how they m must have been in the time of our forefathers. I felt those words had to be recaptured and preserved to rekindle our identity and pride. I always believed there was a proper way of using words. I knew not the evolutionary processes of languages. I did not want to share the language with other nationalities for fear of further loss and bastardization. I also believed that if I wasn't totally fluent with my first language, I would never be whole. I would feel awkward around the Elders and people who were well versed in the language and had a tendency to withdraw from a lengthy of full conversation. I knew there were other First Nations like the Cree, Micmac, and Mohawk, but I knew practically nothing of dialect. I believe dialect and the lock of its knowledge contributed to my feelings of inefficiency with the language. I used to believe that the language was dying. Native Language in Ontario Vol. 12, No. 3 20 �I feel very fortunate to have been able to attend Lakehead University this year, predominantly because of my education in the Linguistics classes. Our instructor, Mr. R.M. Agnihotri, has opened my eyes and renewed my hope and faith that we as native people belong with our languages, will survive! Now I have a more positive and optimistic outlook for the future. I have learned to appreciate the finer points of the language and learner processes. Instead of isolating ourselves with the language from the outside world, I now believe that languages and people grow, learn and flourish from exposure to each other. The only things constant is •change". New languages are coming into being all the time because of interaction. Our language will change but it will live on. I see now how languages are both highly structured and variable, and how with time and patience, any language can be broken down and understood. I have always heard that children can learn a new language faster than adults. Now I learn that both can learn equally as well and fast in regards to the structure and words, but when it comes to pronunciation, the children have a slight edge on adults,. I am also aware of the influences that the geographical location and environment con have on a language. For instance, in Native country, if you live near a river, body of water or any Island, the language will have a lot of •shhh" sounds because of the water washing up against the shore line. If the Tribe is in the extreme north, then the language will be harsh like the weather. I used to think that linguistics knew several languages but now I am aware that it is a study of the structure and not the language itself. It is these kind of peoples that con preserve and enhance heritages. They can capture a language and record it on paper for the benefit of future generations and cultures. Some suggestions to ensure the continuity of the language was not to focus all our energies and efforts on the day-to-day fights like the realization of a language facility in the community, but rather to attack the Big Picture. Concentrate at the National level to have a Native language policy, fight for more capital and operational dollars, fight for equality. Go to the grass roots level - politicians, and have them lobby the governments for the community and its members. Have them institutionalized the language in the workplace and service centers, encourage them to use it in the Council and public meetings. We have also learned about the nature of he learner and the learning process. For example, we find in the learner that it is perfectly natural to make errors. In fact, this may ever be desirable as now there is a method of comparison between right and wrong, good or better. It is not a negative aspect of learner development it is what makes us human, approachable and unpredictable. Languages are what separate us from animals. For the longest time it was believed, maybe even before the manifestation of record keeping and language structure development, that the learner received comprehension and retentions through the five senses. This is what we are putting in, this is what will be learned. In fact, this theory holds true to this day. There have been numerous studies conducted by countless professionals and human behaviorists about the theories behind the learning process. Now we find out that the learner is at the center of the learning process and that there are several factors which influence his learning and what he learns. Society, for example, teaches in the language of the dominating majority, which, in Canada, is the English language. Social and economic conditions are also prevalent and contributing factors because not everyone can go to say Yale University, because of unwritten restrictions imposed by society. Maybe there are sociably acceptable criteria for entry or the restrictions may be confining because of financially embarrassing reasons. The individual may also have factors such as age, attitudinal problems, motivational deficiencies, linguistic sensitivities and attitudinal qualifications holding him back. Native Language in Ontario Vol. 12, No. 3 21 �The teacher and the types of material used to teach also have a bearing on what the individual learns. Does the tmcher hove the qualifications, what sort of attitude does she display. is she linguistically sensitive, is she sensitive to cultural differences. Does she present materials that are interesting, pleasant and contributing to the crmtive instincts of the lmrner? What tmching style is being used in the classroom? Is it tmching style being used in the classroom? Is it Behaviorism?, where is it believed that the mind is a blank space to be filled? Is it the (L.A.D.), Language Acquisition Device, where the person is believed to be starting our knowing very little? Or is it through the General Cognitive Structures theory. It was not until fairly recently that a new theory was conceived whereby it was believed that the child was born with the knowledge of a universal language, a sixth sense. They said that the infants brain must be preprogrammed to a certain extent, it was not any empty basket as previously assumed. To my thinking this is the most logical of the theories. I cannot believe that the brain is empty upon birth...I distinctly remember when my own son was born and how he rmcted to his new environment. I could see the intelligence instantly. He felt the cold and reacted appropriately, he could not see clearly but he was able to focus on the overhmd light. This was the fist thing he sow in this life and for the longest time, for a period of about three ymrs, he was still compelled by light and would look right into a burning light bulb. In my mind, I could make him our as saying, • Where the heck om I, what's happening, what's that?• I told his mother, he's a food one, Deb. I believe that a newborn is innate, meaning that both parents genetically transferred the preprogramming previously mmtioned. It is quite conceivable to me that the chromosomes of the parents carry not the characteristics of the parents but also a kind of collective memory. This memory is then constantly developing in the ovary, in the womb and right on through the individual's lifetime. Even while the fetus is developing. it hos the ability to comprehend the outside world through the five senses and analyze with the sixth. It can hear noises such as language while still in the womb and recognize the smell of its mother even when it is separated for periods of time. This is memory at work, analytical thinking. Furthermore. studies have shown that the human brain uses no more than 5 to 10 percent of its power. Why is this? It is protecting us from ourselves? Will there come a time when we no longer require a shell, and will the next form be energy matter? If the brain only used the 10 percatt that we can measure, then surely the other 90 percent must be doing something. I refer to the unconscious of the sixth sense. I believe there is more going on that meets the eye and I will refer to it as "automatic learning• or self-preservation. Even during the silent years, from birth to soy abo,µt three years. the individual is still lmrning and developing the confidence to try new things. like speech. Remember, you can learn more by listening all the time than you can be speaking all the time. Learning is more that a one way street, there are so many variables associated with it that no two people see the some thing exactly the same way. In conclusion. I would soy that any tmching professional that takes the time to understand his subject, his pupils' individuality, the external factors and the theories and learning techniques available to him, will do well in his or her chosen career. Native Language in Ontario Vol. 12, No. 3 22 �WHAT IS EVALUATION There have been many ideas shared and discussed, and methods developed on the topic of •evaluationH. The Ministry documents, Native Languages Guideline and Resource Guide - Support Document, provide detailed sections on evaluation. Still, we get questions on what is the best way to apply a method you select? Following is another contribution made by Adrian Peetoom. Here is some information and citations made from his publication •RefleXionsH. ...you rely on what your own mind and heart - and the hearts and minds of your students - tell you ... what's going on in our program, on your profession, in your own professional life. Genuine evaluating is built right into classroom practice. The trick is to recognize when and what and how you and your students are evaluating. s��m-pcmder. • Evaluation is first and foremost a celebration of what learners have learned. • Evaluation is a process, not a product. • The purpose of evaluation is not to measure, but to foster. • Evaluation depends on knowing the children and recognizing their gifts, learning styles and interests. • It is what people do together for the purpose of helping learning along and building confidence in the learner. The key to evaluation: Students are totally involved in the process. There is only working with the students (and their parents) to discover... - what they already know, - what they sti II need to know, and - how they can be helped to know. Like learning, evaluation happens every moment...The trick is to become more specifically aware of and reflective about what you see, hear, feel, think, decide, so that each bit you learn about your students' learning from them or from you own observations, affects what you say and do next and builds towards your common learning goals. Evaluation isn't something you do to students; it's something you do with them on an ongoing basis. Native Language in Ontario Vol. 12, No. 3 23 �Think of the on-going process as the "five R's": • Research: What have we done? ... when you gather information about what both you and the students did. You collect all kinds of data: about your instruction, the students' interactions, the process of their learning (observable behaviors), pieces of writing, completed tests, oral projects, drama, drawings, paintings, constructed models, audio and video tapes etc. • Reflection: What have we learned? •what do we know?• - applies to you as well as the students. From the research information and the materials you've collected, you arrive at some tentative conclusions about the learning process; not only of what of learning, but also the why, when, how, and with whom ...It's no longer simply what you value in your students' learning that's important, but what they value as well. Their own goals are what matter, and their recognition and understanding of how and how much they're moving toward those goals. • Response: Where will we go from here? Each •evaluation" you and your students make as you reflect on the learning they and you have done points to new goals that build on what has already been learned. • Reporting: What can we tell each other and others about our learning? -an ongoing sharing of thoughts and feelings about the process of learning and what is being learned. Also important is periodic communication between you and the parents - with the student - about what you saw, what you thought, what you wondered, what you decided. • Recording: What learning can we record as completed? If the first four •:steps" are in place and everyone has had an opportunity to contribute, then official records of your students' work and learning will be no big deal. Thinking about learning: Questions for evaluating yourself and your teaching ... 1. What did the students learn? 2. What did I learn about them 3. What did I learn about my teaching?

It was good to have student teachers, faculty and staff take the big challenge to be involved in the Native Language Instructors· Program. his good to get together. to help each other, to teach each other, lo support each other, and to learn from each other. It is always our wish to get together at a program where we can share, talk to each other, and give ideas on what to do in our Native language pro­ gramming. Our Native languages are in danger of dying. Let's not lose what our Creator gave us. We must be strong in our minds and in our hearts what it means to be Anishnaabe. It does not matter where we are. whether it is at home, at a school, at an college or university, in our commu­ nity, or wherever we are, we will help, promote, develop resources, teach, or do research towards the revitalization of our Anishnaabe languages. All the best in your endeavours.

In Respect to All Florrie Sutherland Children's Program Principal Native Language Instructors' Program �Odaminowin Coordinator's Message ... Odaminowin Day Camp offered a variety of programming this year including traditional arts and crafts, swimming excursions, nature waJks, Whiskey Jacks baseball games, drug and alcohol education. role model programs and Elder visits. As a result of the exceptionaJ efforts of Odaminowin staff, NLIP administration and members of the community the children had the opponunity to panicipate in and share a variety of experiences. I hope that all the laughs, smiles and energy which the participants shared with us this summer are as a result of these effons. On behalf of all the staff, I would like to thank all the volunteers and parents for the exceptional commitment which they have shown to the children and the program. As a final note, I would like to thank all the children. Without your motivation and suppon this program wouldn't exist. I look forward to seeing you next year. Gchi-miigwech!

So she bought the popcorn and Robina put it in the oven. After they thought it was done they got it out from the microwave. But the popcorn didn't look popped so Robina put it back in the microwave. After seconds later, she got it out again. So they sat at the table and Loretta came along to join them. As the three of them were sitting helping themselves to popcorn, they didn't notice the smoke from the popcorn until Randy, their instructor, came along and said ..What are you three doing? Having a popcorn smudge?" Emma told him "I think is just burned a little". Then a lady came up to them and said "Is your popcorn burning?" Emma told her "Oh, it's just the heat evaporating out of the popcorn". They kept on helping themselves to it Until the security guard came and said "Somebody burning some­ thing here?" The three of them just kept on talking without paying attention until the security guard came up to them and said "Your popcorn!" That's when they started checking the popcomlt was already half burning, then some lady comes up to them and said "Get the fire extinguisher!" The three of them had an apple juice each so they just poured all of it on the popcorn. "Oh well", they said, ••we do that in Summer Beaver, that's our tradition". �From the Students . . .

Being a pan of the program has always been imponant to me, and rve always greatly enjoyed working with NLIP faculty. staff. and especially students. As I look back upon my role as Acting Coordinator for the past year, rve had a different perspective on NLIP. The last year has been an infonnative and challenging one for me and I hope that the results of the preparation done over the last year have made NLn> 1993 enjoyable and wonhwhile for you. Despite some unexpected 'events' such as the sudden closing of the Ryan Building, I hope that the summer was a successful and satisfying one for you. The spirit of NLIP comes from the efforts of many people, in particular the srudents and our excellent faculty members. Special thanks are due to Sonya Bruyere and Judy Turrie, the hard­ working NLIP secretaries. Much of the success of the program this summer is because of their energy and enthusiasm. Everyone connected with NLIP is in their debL rm also looking forward to the future. I know that Lena White, the new Coordinator of NLIP will be working bard to maintain the high quality of the program. and to make it even better. I'm looking forward to working with her, and I'm sure that she will be contributing to NLIP in her new position, much as she has already done as an instructor and as a student. -John O'Meara �Coordinator's Message ... Aanii: I BooiJtoo: As I begin my dutic.s as Coordinator, I feel excited and fortunate because I will be working in a program where lhe faculty and staff and student teachers share common beliefs in the importance of revitalizing our Native languages. The Native Language Instructors• Program is unique. While it offers programs (or t he preparation of leachers of Native Language. it provides a great opportuni1y for our teachers in relearning and retrieving our traditions. Much sharing of Native teachings takes place and these get incorporated in the lesron planning where appro priate, and in everyday life. Swdents in various programs gain lhe knowledge, skills and values penincn t in a teaching environment. Along wilh this lcaming. self-awarcn� in personal development is the key. Swdents develop self-<:onfidence and a strong sense of responsibility in their roJe as a teacher. This also gives NLIP a sense of positive energy. Each year. lhe program gets stronger. As our Native communities get stronger in their language development, we feel those energies comprised of the knowledge and traditions that are being shared during the summer lhat makes our program very special and proud because of its vision and accomplishments.

I've had a great time here! It•s been different every year but what I find most intriguing is the fact of getting to know your fellow students, just a little better. The "Westerners" have played a very imponant role this summer and it is one filled with emotion. love and honour. I hope you don'r mind my saying "Westerners" but that's how we•ve been defined through NLIP, Western Ojibwe, Eastern and Central Eastern - all because of dialect differences. The Year 4 class has no boundaries of dialect, and many thanks to Randy Valentine, Instructor, for teaching the way he did. He acknowledged us in his teaching method as "all being one" regardless of who or where we are. A bond was always approached and defined through culture and language, especially how we arrive at certain words. He strengthened the bond we felt for another. We, people from down south, outspoken and silly in contrast to the people from up north who were reserved and quiet all came forward full strength and showed everyone who they were and I love them for it Throughout the years we have learnt and gained knowledge and ways oflife not to mention a pride for each other. We were one in body, mind and spirit. The man from up north who took us to a "lovely banquet" was one Roger Oskineegish and his wife, Emma. Emma has been in class from the beginning and has been one of the most smiling, admired, and richest people I have met (richness - not in the sense of money)- from the bottom of our hearts we thank Roger for a time we will never for get. May he be blessed at an even greater measure in his business and the work he is doing for his people back home. We love you both! It's very hard for me to write a shon dialogue because my bean is bubbling with emotions and love for my/our people and I find I easily get overwhelmed. because I see them for who they/we are and if we keep moving ahead, the time will come when we will be the Head and not the Tail. It's on it's way! The 50/50 draws were $156.00 for the first draw, a $60.00 picture donated by Stewart McCue for the second draw and $52.00 for the third which was won by Christie Okimaw. There was yet another draw at the NLIP Feast held at the Friendship Centre - Gary Hannam won $56.00, and $25.00 by Willy John. There were others who won but I am unable to think of their names at the momenL I do know that they were pleased they won. Last weekend we had a "Fun Day" and we had such a great time that our sides were hutting from laughing so hard. The races and "Gookoosh" was very comical to watch. People who didn't show up sure missed a good time! It was there again that we got even more acquainted to new people and friends. The events I am referring to were Saturday, July 17 and Sunday, July 18th. We took a break and served hot dogs and pop. It was nice having all the young people in my room as we talked about school and education. �The members of the Student Council have worked to better the environment and atmosphere on University campus living. The Student Council also formed a bond and it went on to others like Norman Beaver who helped set up equipment for entenainment at the "Feast". He approached me and said "Can I help you?" I looked at him questioningly. He just smiledd and said "I'm volunteering to help you". So I began to tell him about the Feast and that's when he volunteered to look after the entenainment aspect - what a great guy! He tells me he has just made arrangements to have an album come out and I hope each and every one of you will make an effon to buy it. I feet very strongly that he deserves the recognition not to mention any profits. All of the Instructors that ever taught us will be long remembered and the input they placed within us. It will be a great benefit to us for years to come. GCHJ-MIIGWECH, TO All on behalf of the 1993 NLIP Student Council and fourth year students. Gchi-miigwech gii-bezhaayaang maanpii!

On Thursday, July 15, Native Crafts Night was held on the second floor of Rainy River Lounge. Among items presented and sold were keychains, polar bear tooth neclaces, moccasins, birchbark picture frames, song tapes, native designed materials, dream catchers, sweetgrass baskets, and earrings. All the items were made by our students or instructors. It turned out to be a great success. The NLIP Pot Luck was held at the Thunder Bay Indian Friendship Centre on Thursday, July 22. Food and bannock was brought and a Karioki provided lots of entertainment for all. The friendship centre facilities were very good and the NLJP group was very comfortable. The festivities wound up around midnight In all, fun was had by all! The total NLIP enrollment figures for 1993 is 147 students, down from last year. One reason for this is that the Iroquian students are now studying at Brock University near St. Catherines, Ontario. Townhouses for the handicapped (near Balmoral Street) were completed prior to July. Visual Arts Building was completed between the campuses. Alan Bowd, Director of Education has resigned from his position as Director and will go back to teaching. Good Luck Alan! David Bates became the new Director of the School of Education effective July 30, 1993 Delores Wawia accepted a new position at McMastcr and will be leaving Lakchcad - Good Luck Delores!

Lena White becomes NLIP Coordinator. Welcome to the Native Language Instructors' Program Lena and best of luck in your new home and career direction. Judy Tunie will be leaving the NLIP program in August but only for a short time. We are counting on having her back next year. Thanks for all your help Judy, we'll miss you! Did you know that Sonya. the NLIP Secretary, has an admirer who sends flowers from Edmonton? Maybe there are wedding bells in the making? �Sonya and Judy selected the Grey and Burgundy colour for NLIP 1993. The 1992 Graduating class were the first ones exposed to the color theme as they received dreamcatchers in the grey and bur­ gundy which Sonya made for the Grads. During the month of July, T-shirts displaying the colours were available at $17.00, children's T-shirts were $12.50, mugs were $5.00 and NLJP lapel pins were also available for $5.00. A new twist, Mallon's Corporate lmpr�ions. helped Sonya provide satin and nylon jackets, sweatshirts and caps as well as the t-shins, mugs, pens, badges and lapel pins. These were special order items which could be personalized. The response to this service was favourable and we hope to make it a regular service through our office. ...

Eventful because of the planned activities that were successful. fun, and provided an opponunity for students to relax. Exciting because first year students settled in quickly, became involved in course work immediately, were inquisitive yet provided much cultural and/or traditional information when sharing. Sad for those who experienced illness, death, and unplannedjourneys. Memorable for each and everyone of us ...because of a smile, a tear, a ray of sunshine, the sound of a drum, or ... During the 1992 summer school, students participated in many events.There were pot luck suppers, ball games, volleyball games, bingos, videos, and much more. Elders from the province joined us to share their knowledge. A dance and banquet at The OutpOSt created a grand opponunity to swing and sway to the music. The worlcroom in the Bora Laskin became an evening meeting place to work, meet new friends, socialize, and relax. Michelle JeanJean, a graduate student form Paris, France, travelled over the Atlantic Ocean to study with Tom Beardy in his Introductory Ojibwe class. Noxolo Mgudlwa, Phumzile Sotashe, and Tholakele Maphalala travelled. from Capetown, South Africa to participate in and observe the program. They are coordinators with the National Language Project in Capetown. Rama Agnihotti, an Applied linguist from the University of Delhi, taught a year four methods course. Sonny and Josephine Mikaere, from Wanganui, New Zealand, returned for another summer to teach third year courses. Russell Bowd travelled from Central Minnesota to participate in the Herbal Medicine and Parent/Community Involvement Workshops. N.L.I.P. is a well establishedprogram.It continues to grow i n quality as the students and faculty continue to shape the curriculum. Over the years, N.L.I.P.has gained a reputation for the quality of its training. We are recognized in Ontario as the Centre for Native Language Teacher Training and around the world as the Indigenous Language Centre. The work of the program is ttuly important. The Native Language Study and Native Language Teacher Training that is taking place here at N.L.I.P.is indeed world class. It is of significance now and to future generations. The quality of loyalty, dedication, hard work, and caring are helping us to retain Native Language for future generations. This is a sad time for me, as I bid you farewell.At the end of August, I will be at Arctic College developing a Native Teacher Education Program for Athapaskan language speakers. My bean will be with you. I have watched each and everyone of you grow. become committed to the language and your people. Never have I worked with people so dedicated. I am proud and feel honoured to have worked with you. I am sure our paths will cross again in the future. May the Great Spirit Guide You. Che Meegwetch.

Student Life Students have been in a state of con.fusion since the first day of classes. Just as everyone got settled in the Bora Laskin, the move to the Ryan Building was made, bringing more puzzled looks from students. After getting used to the change and finding the location ofclasses, everything moved back to the Bora Laskin Building. Being in class from 8:30 in the morning to 4:30 in the afternoon has made the summer a busy one. When not rushing off to classes, students are seen on the field, in the malls, at ML McKay, at the Old Fon, or relaxing near the townhouses. Everyone has managed to find some spare time to enjoy thcmselves. It has been a full summer of great times and fond memories. �N.L.I.P. Spirit and the Creati on of Our Native Language C ommunity NLTI (Native Language Teacher Training) began as an experimental program in Fon Frances, Ontario in 1973. Within the next two years, it expanded and developed into what became Indian Affairs Branch's Ontario Regional Native As A Second Language training program for Iroquoian and Algonquian second language teachers. In 1977 the first seven graduates received NL.TT certification from the Minister of the Department of Indian and Nonhem Development in Ottawa. In 1978, a second experimental program was undenaken in Thunder Bay to pilot the training program for teachers of Native Language Ans for first language communities. In 1981. both the second language and language ans programs moved to Lakehead University to become diploma programs of the Faculty of Education. The name changed to the present N.L.I.P. (Native Language Instructors' Program). The Institute began in 1980 as a directed studies program for N.L.T.T./N.L.I.P. graduates. It has also become pan ofUniversity life, and offers courses in Literature: The Oral Tradition, Linguistics, Computers, and Research. In July, 1984, the Ministry of Education for the Province of Ontario, announced a new policy regarding Native Language Education. Through the winter of 1984 and 1985, Ministty officials met with Lakehead University personnel to establish a Native Language Teachers' Certification Program leading to a letter of standing after 3 summers of work. In the summer of 1985, the first certification program for Algonquian Language began at La.kehead. The Iroquoian Program moved to Lakehead in 1991. In July of 1986, the first 23 students received a pennanent letter of standing from the Ontario Ministry of Education as certificated Algonquian Second Language Teachers. In July of 1991, the first graduating class of the AQ programme for holders of an Ontario Teaching Certificate consisted of 9 teachers. By 1992 enrollment in the various programs soared to 227. N.L.I.P., while now an established and well-regarded school. continues to grow in quality as each year the best suggestions of student body and faculty continue to shape the curriculum. Over the years, N.L.I.P. has come to enjoy a reputation for the quality of its training. Although designed for Ontario's Native people, students from other pans of Canada. the United States, France and South Africa have come to participate in the program. We have appreciated the contribution they have made to our broadening understanding of Native Language Education. It is our hope that the Native Lan guage Instructors' Program will continue to grow and provide the development, maintenance and revitalization of assistance to Native Language Education in Ontario. :--\WlillllllilllllllllUlilll �Staff �/ Staff �Grads of 1992 ...

Family, During my first summer at Lakehead University, I was quoted as saying, "I'm glad to be here." Over the past three years, the feeling has not changed. -- This summer we had 227 registered in the various N.L.I Programs. Year four of the Diploma Program will have forty-seven graduates; Part Ill Specialist in Native as a Second Language will graduate nine candidates. Memories from Summer 1991: twelve students in year one over fifty-five years of age; grand feast, pow-wow for the Welcoming Ceremony; Sonny and Jo Mikaere, Edena and Kitty join us from New Zealand; elders Richard Lyons, Alex Skead, Walter Linklater, Robin Green, George Kenny, Ernestine Buswa, and Jean Shawana, to share their experiences in cultural knowledge during the evenings; eighty-five children in NSL class; year two and year three students going out of their way to assist year one students; Addition of lroquian students; addition of our full-time councillor Gilda Dokuchie, always smiling , and dreaming of fishing; young children supervised by Heather, Leroy, Michelle, and Leslie; N.L.I.P. is a well established and well regarded component of the School of Education. It continues to grow in quality as each year the student body and faculty continue to shape the curriculum. Over the years N.L.I.P. has gained a reputation for the quality of its traim·ng. The work of our school is truly important, that is the Native Language Study and Native Language Education that is taking place here in N.L.I.P. is world class and of significance now and to future generations. The qualities of loyalty, hard work, and caring are helping us to retain Native Language for future generations. I'm proud of you.

When tellching the Ojibwe language it is an opportunity to integrate culture into the Native language curriculum. Culture is a medium used to develop a self identity or cultural identity. The topic 'Beyond the Sound of the Drum' has many, many considerations. The presentation is an overview which encompasses some of these, mainly the Ojibwe version of the drum's origin. the presenter's personal experience in making a hoop drum and the sharing of a teaching unit.

It shall proceed from the time a suitable beaver lodge is found, occupied by the subjects; through various sages of trapping. skinning. stretching and drying. to the point where the beaver is shipped out 10 the market. It is very important to keep this type of Cultural Activity within the Native communities as a means of identity, as it has bt.e.n a part of the Native way of life for centuries.

But the mood of forgive and forget was not universal. As the Kahnesatake native spoke on Sunday, about 30 Indi­ ans from every region in Can­ ada sat in a circle in another part of the disputed Oka pine forest, pounding drums and chanting, "Hai ya, hai ya, hai ya, hai ! Mohawk Warriors kicked your ass!" Some or the non-natives pre­ sent shuHled their feet and looked embarrassed. In another circle, about 100 stood silently as an interpreter translated into English the statements of an elder from the interior of British Columbia during a tobacco-burning cere­ mony. He said he had been lrained as a young man to keep tears Crom his eyes but that the peo­ ple listening should understand h e was inwardly moved at meeting the Mohawks who had been through so much and sad lo be leaving his new friends to return home. In yet another circle, the drums beat more slowly as Sal­ ish Indians from the Vancouver area, Cree from Saskatchewan, Micmac from Nova Scotia, and Seminoles from Florida em­ braced a young Mohawk vet­ eran of last summer's 78-day standoff and said goodbye. The standorr began when pro­ vincial police stormed a Mo• hawk barricade erected outside Oka to stop the expansion of a golf course onto land claimed as sacred by the Indians. A provin• cial police oHicer was killed in the bungled raid and Mohawks at Kahnawake, near Montreal, blocked a major commuter bridge in sympathy with the Oka natives. Cree said the four days of prayers. songs, dances and speeches were supposed to be part of a !waling pr(x•css. Native leaders like Manitoba MLA Elijah Harper, or Lone­ lighter Milton Born-With•A· Tooth, an Alberta Peigan, told the people of Kahnesatake lhat despite the fact their commu­ nity is stilldivided and their land problem is unsettled, their actions last summer earned the respect of native people across Canada. The atmosphere in Kahna­ wake, the other Montreal-area Mohawk community was com- But Saturday and Sunday thousands of natives and non­ natives flocked to Tekakwitha Island on the reserve south of Montreal. WATCHED DANCING They watched the dancing, in spected handicrafts, ate some of the exotic food like "Real Na ·vaho Taco Burgers" or Resti­ gouche salmon dinners and just looked around. Last September, there was a violent confrontation on the is­ land between Canadian Forces troops searching for hidden weapons and angry Mohawks armed with rocks. Several sol­ diers and natives were injured in lhc mclce. Sunday, il looked like a coun­ lrv fair. Monique Turcotte, a young mother from Chateauguay who was there with her baby, said she hadn't planned to come at all. "I was arraid that somebodv might cause trouble," she said.· "Nol necessarily the Indians. lhere are lroublemakers in Cha­ Le aug ua y too, you know. II doesn't take very many to harm a lot of people." 0 teauguaywas the scene of violent anti-Mohawk protests l�l summer after Kahnawake Mohawks closed a commuter bridge to Montreal to show sup­ port for beleaguered kinsmen in Oka. "But I wanted to see what it was like,'· Turcotte said. "�'hen nothir.g bad happened Saturday, ( decided to come. It's nice here The fear is gone. People seem happy and cour­ teous." At one pomt Sunday after­ noon, an allractive, middle­ aged Mohawk woman took some lime away from her hand­ icraft booth to watch the danc­ ing. She asked the big French­ C'anadia n man sitting next to ht-r "'hetlwr he was <'njoying h11m.t•lf He said, ··yes."

To Members of the NLIP Family, This is my second summer with NLIP. The school has provided moments of insight, friendship, heroism, courage, wisdom, and humour. Memories from Summer 1990: * students who found it tough, but kept going * students who made things better for the rest of us * students who shared insights, courage, jokes, and wisdom * students who shared white glue and ideas * students who showed others the fine art of laminating 1: Jo 1: 1: Jo The enrollment for year one NLTC increased by 100\. Due to the unforseen increase, classes were much larger than usual. My thanks to first year students for being patient and understanding; my thanks and appreciation to 0 faculty who stayed up to the wee hours of the morning helping and markin91 books; a tremendous thank you to all other students who assisted our first I o year without complaint. 10 NLIP is a well established and well regarded school. It continues to grow in ° quality as each year the suggestions of student body and faculty continue to· shape the curriculwn. Over the years NLIP has gained a reputation for the I 0 quality of its training. Although designed for Algonquian languages, students from other parts of canada and from the United States come for training. : 1 The work of our school is truly important, that is, the Native Language StudyO and Native Language Education that is taking place here in NLIP is world clas and of significance now and to future generations. The qualities of loyalty,o hard work, and caring are helping us to retain Native Language for future generations. I'm proud of all of you. o J 1: I�o Barbara .......11 1 ..... ._. ..

A � ,/7?� Mary L. Mitchell. Coordinator Native Lenguege P1"0firams �To Members of the NLIP Family, This is my last summer with NLIP, and once again the school has provided in abundance moments of insight, friendship, heroism, and from which I will carry with me as treasured memories: *to those who have found it tough going, but have kept trying. *to those who have gone the second, and third, and fourth mile to make things better for the rest of us. *to those who have shared insights, courage, jokes, wisdom, and even masking tape. -- a sincere "miikwehe" Until now I have not thought much about the "atmosphere" of our school; I've been too occupied with other things. But twice this week, I've heard from visitors that the atmosphere on the 3rd floor of the Ryan Building is friendly, open, unusually pleasant. Now that I've stopped to consider, it is just that! That atmosphere is your gift to me, to take with me as I travel­ east, and it's the best souvenir I could ever hope to have of NLIP! The work of our school is truly important. That is, the Native Language Study and Native Language Education that is taking place here in NLIP is world-class, and of significance now and to future generations. It is setting much of the direction as to where we are going in Native Language Education. If the work itself can be described as where we are going, the human qualities of loyalty, hard work, and caring may be described as how we are getting there. I'm proud of you all on both counts. And as I bid you farewell, I urge you: keep travelling! Since my recent arrival at Lak.ehead University, l have had a warm welcome from students, colleagu95 and r�dents of Thunder Bay. In every class I have observed, students �rt friendly, approachable and very Willingly introduced themsetve-s to me. Professors in the program are co-o�rative, ��rts in their field and sincerely concerned about the progress of their students. At this point, I must say, I am excited about the challenges this position has to offer. I thank you for your warm welcome and I am looking forward to working With each and �veryon� of you. � �-w� Barbara Toye-Welsh �3 I I NLTT/NLIP GRADUATES 1977 Elda Antone Nelson Cr1.rlord Mercy s-rs Doxtator Reginald Henry Ruth Isaac Bessie Lnore Geor9ina Nicholas Oneida Cayuga Oneida Cayuga Honawk Hollawk Oneida 1978 Laurett1 Sands Ojibl<e 1979 Rubina Naoglzic: Veronica Waboost Lena White Ojibwe Ojibwe Oj ibwe 1980 Rilph Akiwenz1 Beatrice Echul Ojibwe Cree 1981 Christine Baxter Nonna Fox Franees F l'Offl4n Angela Hoort Violet Pitawan1kw1t Verna Shawl<ence Ojibwe Ojibwe Cayuga Cret Ojibwe Ojibwe 1982 Kinnie Shutt Juliin11e Oninika Cree Ojibwe 1983 Margaret Gardner Modi111 McKay Elizabeth Francis Jolirgaret Norris !Qry McKay Sara Jane 11'..okeguiic c.
