My Project

I’d like access to technology for my students to learn their tribal language. Most tribes now have apps and websites to access these language and learn. Languages are better learned at a young age and I would like to start now. Every year there’s a a language fair and I would love for my students to learn and participate. Let’s start them young and get back to their tribal language roots with technology more accessible to them. At school seven to eight hours a day is time that can be spent learning their tribal language. We start out at Kindergarten which is a perfect age for them to start learning.
