Inuktitut the Language of the Inuit of Nunavut Lesson

In Part 1 of the lesson, to be completed in the classroom, students will be introduced to the language of Inuktitut and will practice pronouncing and writing selected words using Inuktitut syllabics. Then, using the Internet, small groups of students will create an Inuktitut/ English ABC book, complete with illustrations. (Optional: If there are younger children in the same building, pair up two classes and allow older students to share their projects with the younger, teaching them several Inuktitut terms.)
