AYA - 097 Introduction to Ayajuthem II

3 Credit(s)
Students will learn basic conversation, structure, and pronunciation of Ayajuthem with an emphasis on listening and speaking during immersion sets that increase in length and complexity throughout the course. The units will cover a wide variety of themes, including greetings, social interaction, household activities, community, environment of the beach and forest, place names, food harvesting and preparation and cultural activities. Combined, these encompass the way of life of the Homalco, Klahoose, K’omoks, and Tla’amin First Nations people and give insight to how Ayajuthem is essential to who we are and guides relationships with self, the land, sea, sky, sacred realms, community, and society. Students will be introduced to learner strategies and methods that are advantageous for Indigenous language acquisition.
