�FORWARD
This handbook was prepared to assist all those who are involved in the student teaching component
of the Native Language Instructors' Program at Lakehead University. It provides information on
practicum requirements, description of roles and responsibilities of participants, the supervision
cycle and evaluation.
This is an exciting time for Native language teacher education. We are faced with many challenges
and initiatives in the maintenance and revitalization of our Native languages.

"Language is the most vital expression of the people who speak it.
A language expresses the uniqueness of the culture, reflects upon its
spirituality, and embodies aspects of history and philosophy ... It is the
principle means lJy which culnue is gathered, shared and passed on to
successive generations." (Shirley D. Leon)
With this statement in mind, the resurgence of interest in the retrieval of Native traditional teachings
and values is considered important in Native education. We have been reminded by our First
Nations people to start developing and implementing culturally-appropriate programs. We have
this opportunity and support in fulfilling these aspirations.
This handbook was revised to include the Medicine Wheel teachings and the Seven Gifts of the
Seven Grandfathers of the Anishnaabe Nation. The teachings have been adapted and incorporated
where applicable to fit the needs in practicum. "The Medicine Wheel is not limited as an
expression of traditionality. Its application within indigenous support systems is well documented
as a source of interpretative balance, interpersonal renewal, and community aspiration all of which
can and do change over time." (Webster 1992)
It is with great pride and joy that we accomplished this much in our endeavours to prepare a
student teaching handbook that includes a framework conceptualizing teaching and learning from
the Native perspective.

We extend our thanks to the people who were involved in the initial work and design of this
student teaching handbook. Thanks to the students and faculty who gave ideas and suggestions in
its revision. Many people have contributed. It is not possible to acknowledge everyone, however,
Gchi-miigwech to the Elders, spiritual leaders, Native educators and Native professionals in First
Nations communities who shared the Native teachings, and the Seven Gifts of the Seven
Grandfathers at various conferences and ceremonies. We are kept reminded to acknowledge the
source of these teachings, the Three Fires of the Anishnaabe Nation.
Our gratitude also goes to our Dean, David Bates, and faculty and staff of the Faculty of Educati n
who continually give us support, guidance and direction in our work.
Special thanks to Sonya Matson, our Secretary, for her caring nature, thoughtfulness, efficient
administrative support, and for her contributions in the revision of this handbook.

�INTRODUCTION

I

PURPOSE
This handbook contains guidelines for the conduct of practicum teaching. These guidelines au
not legal regulations and may be altered from time to time by the Native Language Instructors'
Program as the need arises.
1.

The practicum is a vital part of teacher education. By means of this phase of work,
the student learns to relate his/her academic and professional knowledge of the
practicum aspects of effective teaching. Student teaching provides the
opportunity for the student to gain, by practical experience, some understanding
of the ways in which children learn and the methods by which a teacher can
promote learning.

2.

Student teaching is a combination of observation and teaching experiences during
which student teachers have opportunities to examine their own teaching
competencies in practical situations.

3.

The main aims of student teaching are:
(a)
(b)
(c)
(d)

4.

the development of the student's potential as a teacher;
the development of the student's understanding of children and
adolescents and their behaviours (especially as applicable to learning);
the assessment of the student's suitability for the teaching profession; and
the preparation of the student for further study of teaching and learning.

Successful completion of the prescribed student teaching progr.im is required for
cenification and graduation.

THE MEDICINE WHEEL
The Medicine Wheel is used as a framework to conceptualize the learning process in practicum
from a Native perspective. It provides a wholistic approach to our personal development and
professional development.
The teachings inherent in the Medicine Wheel are adapted and incorporated where applicable to
reflect the needs and aspirations of the student teachers. These Native teachings are being retrieved
by our First Nations people, and are becoming part of our everyday life. It is with their
encouragement and suppon that gives us motivation to start applying Native traditional teachings
and values in everything we do. The Medicine Wheel encompasses the Seven Teachings of the
Seven Grandfathers of the Anishnaabe Nation. These Native teachings and the Code of Ethics of
the teaching profession may serve as our guiding principles and function as the competency criteria
in developing knowledge and skills in teacher education.

�LESSON PLAN

The student teacher is expected to:
• have a written plan for each format lesson that is .twl.dll- This lesson plan should state
clearly clearly the objectives, the procedure to be followed in the lesson development and
the application, appreciation or follow-up steps which form part of the lesson. It is often
helpful to include some of the GY questions which the student teacher will ask during
the presentation of the lesson. The amount of detail included in the written plan will
depend upon the type of lesson and the children's needs as determined by the student
and the associate teacher.
• exercise initiative and originality in the lessons; however, unusual presentations should
have the approval of the associate teacher before they are attempted.
• have a copy of the lesson plan to use as reference during the lesson, and provide one
copy for the associate teacher's perusal before the lesson is taught, the copy to be kept
and filed for resource material and evaluation.

EVALUATION OF STUDENT TEACHING
l.

Associale teachers observe students during their teaching session not only to
identify the positive clements of a srudent's perfonnance, but also to comment
on personal and professional factors which require improvement. Ultimately, the
results of these observations are used to predict the student teacher's suitability for
a career in teaching.

2.

The most significant and valuable assessment occurs in the discussions between
the associate teacher and student teacher. The formal student teaching evaluation
reports given after each designated lesson or session should provide a written record of the
strengths and areas to be developed of the student teacher's perfonnance during the
observation period.

3.

The associate teacher should complete evaluation reports as determined below:
Summer Session:
- at the end of each student teaching lesson
Between September - June: - dates as planned.

4.

The formal practicum evaluation repon should be filled in as completely as possible
using the scales on each fonn and the space for comments. Schools may use their
own teaching evaluation repon fonns if preferred.

5.

Student teachers are required to indicate that they have read an discussed each
written report by signing it. The student's signature indicates only that the student
has discussed the report with an associate teacher.

�STUDENT TEACHING

To the Student:
The Medicine Wheel is used as a framework to describe the process in student teaching from a
Native perspective. When used as a working tool, it provides a wholistic approach in all aspects of
personal and professional development in teacher education. The Medicine Wheel represents the
meaning of the Four Sacred Directions and encompasses all of the teachings of the Anishnaabe
people, so that we can live in harmony with all of the Creation. The Seven Gifts of the Seven
Grnndfathers will be part of the framework for the competency criteria for teacher education which
are presented as the Native traditional values.

Vision: Gifts of the East
• entry point for the process of student teaching - to grow and develop
as a teacher and uniqueness through the Anishnaabe teachings;
• my search for knowledge, what are my goals?
• what aspect of teaching do I want to improve?
• what are my learning needs and my students' needs?
Knowledge: Gifts of the South
• understanding the concepts of language acquisition;
• the nurturing we receive through interactions with the human, physical and
spiritual environments;
• understanding ways in which children learn;
• sensitivity to the feelings of others.

Growth: Gifts of the West
• a time to reflect on my experiences; what are my values and attitudes;
• what are my strengths and undeveloped areas;
• building on the ongoing evaluation of the lessons taught;
• my identity consisting of :
Self-concept - what I think about myself and my potential as a teacher;
Self-esteem - how I feel about myself and my ability to grow and develop;
Self-awareness - looking within; my strengths and areas to improve;
Self-detennination - my ability to develop the four aspects of my nature,
the spiritual, emotional, physical and mental - toward wholeness.
Wholeness: Gifts of the North
• what goals have I accomplished?
• evaluating my own teaching experiences in practical situations;
• appropriate teaching activities I have selected to promote learning;
• having greater understanding of myself as a teacher,
• what new skills, new attitudes, and new experiences have I acquired?
• recommendations and my own plans for improvement in my next journey around
the Medicine Wheel.

Saving indigenous languages is a matter of great urgency and is
crucial to ensuring the protection of the cultural identity and dignity of
indigenous peoples and safeguarding their traditional heritage.
As a result of linguistic erosion, much of the encyclopedia of
traditional indigenous knowledge that is usually passed down orally
from generation to generation is in danger of being lost forever. This
loss is irreplaceable and irreparable.
Customary laws of indigenous communities are often set out in their
languages, and if the language is lost the community may not fully
understand its laws and system of governance that foster its future
survival ...
The loss of indigenous languages signifies not only the loss of
traditional knowledge but also the loss of cultural diversity,
undermining the identity and spirituality of the community and the
individual.
Biological, linguistic and cultural diversity are inseparable and
mutually reinforcing, so when an indigenous language is lost, so too
is traditional knowledge on how to maintain the world's biological
diversity and address climate change and other environmental
challenges.

Changes In the Native Language Teacher's Certification (NLTC) Program
To Students Starting In NLTC In July 2016:

This letter is an important notice of changes to the Native Language Teacher's Certification (NLTC)
program at Lakehead University. The NLTC program, at the Faculty of Education, began implementing
these changes in September 2015. These changes reflect the Ontario College of Teacher's (OCT)
accreditation requirements.
Formerly, NLTC program students, upon successfully completing all courses over 3 summers,
including the practicum (40 days practice teaching), were recommended to the Ontario College of
Teachers for a Restricted Certificate of Qualification and Registration. However, most of our NLTC
graduates return for a 4th summer and, upon successful completion of all the required courses, are
awarded a Native as a Second Language Diploma.
As of July 2016, the minimum time to complete the NLTC program has been increased to just over 3
years, including four consecutive summers (four weeks in July), and there are additional coursework
and practice teaching requirements that must be completed during the intervening years. A program
chart is enclosed with this letter.

I
I
I
I

The NLTC program starts in July of each year. Concentrated coursework takes place over 4 weeks in
July, In each of 4 successive summers. An additional online course (worth 0.5 FCE) must also be
completed between September and April each year. These courses are show as 1XXX, 2XXX and
3XXX on the program chart.
Students must also complete practicum between September and June each year. In the first year they
must complete 10 days of practicum; in the second year they must complete 20 days; and in the third
year they must complete 50 days. Students will arrange their own practicum experiences, usually in
their home community, with the assistance of the Program Coordinator. Practica must conform to the
requirements of the Ontario College of Teachers. Practicum shows as AAXX, BBXX and CCXX on the
program chart (you must be registered in the appropriate practicum course for the practicum to count).
Students will participate in EDUC 1599 during Summer 2, 3 and 4. This course utilizes students' own
experiences and reflection on their practicum to foster a reflective and inquiring and thoughtful
practice.
When students successfully complete all courses for Summer 1 and Practicum 1 (10 days of student
teaching), they will be recommended to the Ontario College of Teachers for a Transitional Certificate.
Once all the NLTC required coursework and practicum are successfully completed, the graduating
students may attend the Lakehead University convocation in Thunder Bay to receive their Diplomas.
Successful students will also be recommended to the Ontario College of Teachers for their final
Certificate of Qualification and Registration with the College (Teaching Certificate).

Aboriginal Education Program Coordinator at 807-343-8003 or by e-mail: bbeardy@lakeheadu.ca

Workshop - Aboriginal Cultural &amp; Support Services - Yolanda Twance
Aboriginal Cultural &amp; Support Services (ACSS) has been a part of Lakehead University since
1987. We provide a culturally supportive environment to all Aboriginal students. ACSS helps
Aboriginal students to achieve academic success through a variety of support services. Every
year we adapt our support services to provide academic, individual, and cultural services that are
based on students' needs. The Thunder Bay campus ha s an Aboriginal Student Lounge
(SCO0O4), which is a hub for student activities throughout the year. The lounge offers an open
and comfortable environment where students can access a study area, kitchenette, and computer
lab. In addition, we have a cultural room for individual or group sessions with our Elder-in
Residence Program. The lounge is a home away from home for many Aboriginal students and it's
a great place to meet new friends! During this workshop, you will learn more details about the
services ACSS has to offer.

�A SHORT HISTORY OF N,L.I,P,

***************************

NLTT (Native Language Teacher Training) began as an experimental
program in Fort 'Frances, Ontario. in 1973, Within the next two years it
expanded and developed into what bec.rme I.A.B's. Ontario Regional NASL
training program for Iroquoian and Algonkian second language teachers.
In 1977 the first seven graduates received their NLTT certification from
the Minister of D,I,A,N,D, in Ottawa,
In 1978, a second experimental program was undertaken in Thunder
Bay, to pilot the training program for teachers of Native language Arts
for first language" conmunities.
11

In 1981, both prograllll!les (second language, and language arts)
moved to Lakehead University. to become diplo1119. programnes of the Faculty
of Education with the name changing to our present NLIP (Native Language
Instructors' Programme). "The Institute" begun in 1980 as a directed studies
programme for NLTT/NLIP graduates, has also become part of University life,
and Institute courses now are offered by Lakehead's Faculty of Arts.
NI.IP, while now an established and well-regarded school, continues
to grow in quality as each year the best suggestions of student body and
faculty continue to shape the curriculum. Over the years, NLIP has come to
enjoy a reputation for the quality of its training. Although designed and
operated for Ontario's Native people, students from other parts of Canada
and from the United States have �ome to us for training. We have
appreciated the contribution they have made to our broadening understanding
of Native Language education,
It is our hope that both NLIP and the Institute will continue
to grow and prosper and that they ,nay become increasingly a source of
practical assistance to Native Language Education in Ontario and beyond.

and from the United States have �ome to us for training. We have
appreciated the contribution they have made to our broadening understanding
of Native Language education.
It is our hope that both NLIP and the Institute will continue
to grow and prosper and that they 1111lY become increasingly a source of
practical assistance to Native Language Education in Ontario and beyond.

Our Senior Native Language Arts class invited the junior
class to a "paper chase" Mary and Modina wrote out clues
on small pieces of paper.� We had two teams. One of the
teams had clues on a plain piece of paper and the otner on
tined paper. They hid the pieces of paper around the class�
room and the last clue told us where the prize was. We
looked all over the place for the little notes telling us
where to look for the next ones. I saw a whole bunch of
men chasing after Mary Mitchell's head, looking for the
next clue. The person who found the note had won the prize,
a box of candies. We all had candies, which we won. The
two teams enjoyed themselves. It gave us a break from our
regular assignments.

A SHORT HISTORY OF N.L.I.P.
***************************
NLTT (Native Language Teacher Training) began as an
experimental program in Fort Frances, Ontario, in 1973. Within
the next two years, it expanded and developed into what became
I.A.B's - Ontario Regional NASL training program for Iroquoian
and Algonkian second language teachers. In 1977, the first seven
graduates received their NLTT certification from the Minister of
D.I.A.N.D. in Ottawa.

In 1978, a second experimental program was undertaken in
Thunder Bay, to pilot the training program for teachers of Native
language Arts for "first language" communities.
In 1981. both progranmes (second language, and language
arts) moved to Lakehead University, to become diploma progranmes of
the Faculty of Education with the name changing to our present NLIP
(Native Language Instructors Programme). "The Institute" began in
1980 as a directed studies programme for NLTT/NLIP graduates, has
also become part of University life, and Institute courses now are
offered by Lakehead's Faculty of Arts.
NLIP, while now an established and well-regarded school,
continues to grow in quality as each year the best suggestions of
student body and faculty continue to shape the curriculum. Over
the years, NLIP has come to enjoy a reputation for the quality of
its training. Although designed and operated for Ontario's Native
people, students from other parts of Canada and from the United States
have come to us for training. We have appreciated the contribution
they have made to our broadening understanding of Native Language
education.

It is our hope that both NLIP and the Institute will continue
to grow and prosper and that they may become increasingly a source of
practical assistance to Native Language Education in Ontario and
beyond.

A SHORT HISTORY OF N.L.I.P.
***************************

In 1978, a second experimental program was undertaken in
Thunder Bay, to pilo� the training program for teachers of Native
language Arts for "first language" communities.
In 1981, both programs (second language, and language
arts) moved to Lakehead University, to become diploma programs of.
the Faculty of Education with the name changing to our present NLIP
(Native Language Instructors' Program}. "The Institute" began in
1980 as a directed studies program for NlTT/NLIP graduates, has
also become part of University life, and Institute courses now are
offered by Lakehead's Faculty of Arts.

I

■

-

NLTT (Native language Teacher Training) began as an
experimental program in Fort Frances, Ontario, in 1973. Within
the next two years, it expanded and developed into what became
I.A.8.'s - Ontario Regional NASL training program for Iroquoian
and Algonkian second language teachers. In 1977, the first seven
graduates received their NLTT certification from the Minister of
0.1.A.N.O. in Ottawa.

■ I
■

■

Page 1

I� July, 1984, the Ministry of Education for the Province
of Ontario, announced its new policy regarding Native Language
Education. Through the winter of /84 - /85 Ministry Officials
met with Lakehead University personnel to establish a Uative
language Teachers 1 "Certification" program leading to a letter
of standing after 3 sulllllers of work. In the summer of 1985, the
first "certification" program began, with the Algonkian group
continuing at Lakehead, and the Iroquoian group relocating at the
University of Western Ontario.

-

-

NLIP, while now an established and well-regarded school,
continues to grow in qua1ity as each year the best suggestions of
student body and faculty continue to shape the curriculum. Over
the years, NLIP has come to enjoy a reputation for the quality of
its training. Although designed and operated for Ontario's Native
people, students from other parts of Canada and from the United
States have come to us for training. We have appreciated the
contribution they have made to our broadening understanding of
Native language Education.
Jt
continue to
a source of
Ontario and

i•, our hope Lh&lt;1t hoth NLII' ,Hld the I11�tltule will
grow and prosper and that they may become increasingly
practi ca1 assistance tortative Language Education in
beyond.

Sister Lenore Sullivan
lost her voice last year on
the first day or her new
job as a teacher at the
Gull Bay School.
· She didn't lose It

because she had to speak
all day - she's used to
lhat with 19 years of
teaching experience
behind her. Sister Lenore
said she lost her voice as
a result or shock. due to
the "big differences" she
round in teaching in a

reserve school.
'"The big ·thing was the
absence or supporting
structure. There were no
school policies. and the
expectations were loosely
defined,'' said Sister
Lenore.
The school on the Gull
Bay Reserve isn't even
remote in comparison to
some in the northern·
regions, such as the
Wlnlsk Reserve on Hud•
son's Bay. Al least the
Gull Bay Reserve. being
170 km north of Thunder
Bay on Highway 527. is
accessible by road.
It's a relatively new
school. having opened in
1983, and it contains some
modern conveniences
such as a computer.

and typewriter. The 65
students at the school are

students receive in urban

IB.5UE LAST YEAR

The quality of educa­
tion has been an Issue this
past year as newly•
eJected band chief Oliver
Poile has considered it
one of his special in·
terests.
Polle believes the
school's testing methods
should be improved. since
students in previous

•

PUTTING BRUSH TO CANVAS ONE MORE TIME
years were graduating
from class to class
without achieving the pro­
per academic levels.
"'They haven't failed
anyone for years. It ·s nol
right." said Poile

This past June was only

the se&lt;:ond year in which
a number of students
were told they would have
to repeat their year.
Students didn't fail and
it seemed that no one
cared if they reeei11ed a
proper educatkln. said
Polle. The school is fund•
ed by the Department of
Indian and Northern Ar·

fairs. and no one wanted

to think that a proper job
was not being done. he
said.
"It's better to educate
the kids lhen make them
believe
. they're edu•
caled,. said Poire. "At
least now they know
they'11e earned their
grade.''

NONORTHERN
CURRICULUM
"We have the same pro­
blem they have ln any
northern rural communi•
ty - the absence of a real•
ly good curriculum
material that is geared lo
the needs o f lhe
students." said Sister

Lenore.
It's difficult to provide
the students with an in•

centive when they have a
curriculum they can't
relate to, shesaid. Most o!
the students wilt spend
their entire Jives on the
reserve. yet the cur­
riculum is geared to a
modern, urban. school. In

cOWttry. she added.
There is some native
material available. such

enough, said Sister
Lenore.

/\nothP.r difference th.ti
Sister Lenore had to get
used to. was the concept
of the school year and

"Indian time doesn't
run from 9 ajn. until 3

A SHORT HISTORY OF N.L.I.P.
***************************
NLTT (Native Language Teacher Training) began as an
experimental program in Fort Frances, Ontario, in 1973. Within
the next two years, it expanded and developed into what became
I.A.B.'s - Ontario Regional NASL training program for Iroquoian
and Algonkian second language teachers. In 1977, the first seven
graduates received their NLTT certification from the Minister of
D.I.A.N.O. in Ottawa.
In 1978, a second experimental program was undertaken in
Thunder Bay, to pilot the training program for teachers of Native
Language Arts for "first language" communities.
In 1981, both programs (second language, and language
arts) moved to Lakehead University, to become diploma programs of
the Faculty of Education with the name changing to our present NLIP
{Native language Instructors' Program). "The Institute 11 began in
1980 as a directed studies program for NLTT/NLIP graduates, has
also become part of University life, and Institute courses now are
offered by Lakehead's Faculty of Arts.
In July, 1984, the Ministry of Education for the Province
of Ontario, announced its new policy regarding Native Language
Education. Through the winter of /84 - /85 Ministry Officials
met with Lakehead University personnel to establish a Hative
Language Teachers' "Certification" program leading to a letter
of standing after 3 summers of work. In the summer of 1985, the
first "certification" program began, with the Algonkian group
continuing at lakehead, and the Iroquoian group relocating at the
University of Western Ontario.
NLIP, while now an established and well-regarded school,
continues to grow in quality as each year the best suggestions of
student body and faculty continue to shape the curriculum. Over
the years, NLIP has come to enjoy a reputation for the quality of
its training. Although designed and operated for Ontario's Native
people, students from other parts of Canada and from the United
States have come to us for training. We have appreciated the
contribution they have made to our broadening understanding of
Native Language Education.
It
continue to
a source of
Ontario and

is our hope that both NLIP and the Institute will
grow and prosper and that they may become increasingly
practical assistance to Native Language Education in
beyond.

CONTEST AIMS TO REVIVE NATIVE CRAFT
:,,eRl!,vVA.S:.

W,i.

Native Canadian John Kim Bell and shoe COll'4)8ny
director Sonja Bate teamed up recently to sponsor an
international c�tition among North American Indian
1 craftsmen to produce authentic Indian footwear.
For a total of $6,0IXJ in prizes, Indians will be
invited to 5".)end the next ntAe months creating auth­
entic footwear in their tribal styles. The proMts
will likely be exhibited, and the winners may be
contracted by 8ata Industries to make additional
pairs to supply tNJseuns around the world.

8ata•s family shoe fortune was made in mass-production
--you won't likely see Navajo catus kickers" or
moosehair-tufted lll.Jkluks in the windows of their
shoe stores.
But Sonja Bata eKhibited her knowledge of the ancient
Indian craft with samples•-including some expertly
crafted moccasins 1110re than 200 years old--from the
Bata shoe lll.JSeulll, located at the cornpany•s head
office on Wynford Drive.

ART FORM

Bell, part-time director of the Toronto Sytl1:)hony,
who founded the Native Arts roundatlon two years ago,
said the coq&gt;etitloo ls an attempt to preserve a
cultural art form that is in danger of being lost.
8.Jt the 11ar1&lt;et for such work is small, and often
natives are in no POSition to spend the many hours
it takes to make them by hand.

A HISTORY OF N,L.I.P.

NLTT (Native Language Teacher Training) began as an experimental program in
Fort Frances, Ontario, in 1973. Within the next two years, it expanded and developed
into what became I.A.8.'s - Ontario Regional NASL training program for Iroquoian and
Algonquian second language teachers. In 1977, the first seven graduates received
NLTT certification from the Minister of D.I.A.N.D. in Ottawa.

In 1978, a second experimental program was undertaken in Thunder Bay, to pilot
the training program for teachers of Native Language Arts for "first language"
communities.

In 1981, both programs (second language, and language arts) moved to Lakehead
University, to become diploma programs of the Faculty of Education with the name
changing to our present NLIP (Native Language Instructors' Program). The "Institute"
began in 1980 as a directed studies program for NLTT/NLIP graduates, has also become
part of University life, and "Institute" courses now are offered by Lakehead's
Faculty of Arts.
In July, 1984, the Ministry of Education for the Province of Ontario, announced
its new policy regarding Native Language Education. Through the winter of '84 and
'85, Ministry officials met with Lakehead
University personnel to establish a Native
Language Teachers' "Certification tt program leading to a letter of standing after
3 summers of work. In the surmier of 1985, the first "certification" program began,
with the Algonquian group continuing at Lakehead, and the Iroquoian group relocating
at the University of Western Ontario.

July 1986 saw the first 23 students receive their pennanent letter of standing
from the Ontario Ministry of Education as certificated'Algonquian Second language
teachers. In July, 1987, the first AQ course (level one) in Algonquian Second
Language teaching was held at Lakehead for holders of an Ontario Teaching Certificate,
with 9 teachers taking part. By 1987, enrollment in the various NL! programs had
soared to 121.
NLIP, while now an established and well-regarded school, continues to grow in
quality as each year the best suggestions of student body and faculty continue to
shape the curriculum. Over the years. NLIP has come to enjoy a reputation for the
quality of its training. Although designed and operated for Ontario's Native people,
students from other parts of Canada and from the United States have come to us for
training. We have appreciated the contribution they have made to our broadening
understanding of Native Language Education.
It is our hope that both NLIP and the ttlnstitute"-will continue to grow and
prosper and that they may become increasingly a source of practical assistance to
Native Lang�age Education in Ontario and beyond.

�To Members of the NLIP Family,
This is my last summer with NLIP, and once again the school has provided
in abundance moments of insight, friendship, heroism, and from which I will
carry with me as treasured memories:
*to those who have found it tough going, but have kept trying.
*to those who have gone the second, and third, and fourth mile to make
things better for the rest of us.
*to those who have shared insights, courage, jokes, wisdom, and even
masking tape.
-- a sincere "miikwehe"
Until now I have not thought much about the "atmosphere" of our school;
I've been too occupied with other things. But twice this week, I've heard
from visitors that the atmosphere on the 3rd floor of the Ryan Building is
friendly, open, unusually pleasant. Now that I've stopped to consider, it is
just that! That atmosphere is your gift to me, to take with me as I travel­
east, and it's the best souvenir I could ever hope to have of NLIP!
The work of our school is truly important. That is, the Native Language
Study and Native Language Education that is taking place here in NLIP is
world-class, and of significance now and to future generations. It is setting
much of the direction as to where we are going in Native Language Education.
If the work itself can be described as where we are going, the human
qualities of loyalty, hard work, and caring may be described as how we are
getting there. I'm proud of you all on both counts. And as I bid you
farewell, I urge you: keep travelling!

Since my recent arrival at Lak.ehead University, l have had a warm
welcome from students, colleagu95 and r�dents of Thunder Bay. In every
class I have observed, students �rt friendly, approachable and very
Willingly introduced themsetve-s to me. Professors in the program are
co-o�rative, ��rts in their field and sincerely concerned about the
progress of their students. At this point, I must say, I am excited about the
challenges this position has to offer. I thank you for your warm welcome
and I am looking forward to working With each and �veryon� of you.
