Ojibwe Stories: Gaganoonididaa - "I am so proud of them; they speak Ojibwe."

The North 103.3 | By Chris Harwood
Published July 19, 2016 at 4:08 PM CDT

  On this episode of Ojibwe Stories: Gaganoonididaa we have another conversation with Leona Wakonabo and Gerri Howard.  They grew up on the Leech Lake Reservation and currently work at the Niigaane Immersion School in Leech Lake.  They are also one of the elders working for the Ojibwemotaadidaa Adult Immersion Program.  Our discussion is about immersion approaches to language education.
