This is Session 2 of the Spring 2023 series of Learn Kiowa Zoom Sessions, launched by Dr. Redbird-Post, 2022 Luce Indigenous Knowledge Fellow, in conjunction with LearnKiowa.org. Session 2 focused on: Recap of Session 1, Lesson 2 Overview, Lesson 2 Conversational Practice, Feedback from Elders/Speakers, and a Preview of Lesson 3.
These sessions will be offered on Wednesdays, weekly, beginning January 25 through May 31 from 6:30pm-8:00pm, with an additional 30 minutes added on when an Immersion Session is planned. The agenda and syllabus are provided upon request. These sessions will support current Level 1 Credentialed Kiowa Language Teachers interested in preparing for the Level 2 Kiowa Language Credentialing process, as well as those individuals who want to expand their conversational Kiowa language skills.
LearnKiowa.org is a community-based, grassroots website launched by the Post Family and led by Dr. Redbird-Post with the goal of providing Kiowa language learners, interested Kiowa parents, and teachers of Kiowa children and students of all ages with an online archive of Kiowa language teaching and learning materials arranged by age group. Made possible by the First Nations Development Institute and the 2022 Luce Indigenous Knowledge Fellowship.
