Blackfoot Language Workbook
This Blackfoot Language Project was sponsored by the Galt Museum for participants interested in learning the basics of Blackfoot language. In addition to being able to recognize, write and articulate the Blackfoot language, the participants will also learn about the history of the Blackfoot People, land, way of life and stories. Activities are included to support the acquisition of the knowledge base embodied in the Blackfoot language.
The Blackfoot language is descriptive. Blackfoot language has survived. It has been passed down to us from generations of ancestors here on earth and the universe. It has alive and it has spirit; it is a living language. It is a responsibility we maintain our knowledge base, our practices and way of life as Nitsitapi People. Make connection to the living language. |
