Lushootseed II
The second course in the Lushootseed sequence. This course is designed for any individuals interested in using Lushootseed to communicate. The goal of the course is to support the language revitalization efforts of the Puyallup Tribal community and other Lushootseed speaking tribes. We can do this by increasing the visibility of the Lushootseed language, by making it normal to speak Lushootseed, and creating a welcoming environment for the Lushootseed speaking community. We will use the resources developed by the Puyallup Tribal Language Program on their website (PuyallupTribalLanguage.org). LUT 122 reviews similar topics and builds on the foundational skills learned in LUT 121. We will begin by expanding our conversation about what did you do today applying the vocabulary learned in LUT 121. We will focus on cleaning the bathroom, putting on clothes, and doing laundry. Self-narration and language nesting will be used as a method for daily Lushootseed use and retention beyond the classroom.
