This consultation draft is a sketch grammar of Wergaia, incorporating a revised Wergaia Wordlist (version 1), now renamed Wergaia dictionary, which was developed from recent and historical sources, and funded by the Victorian Aboriginal Corporation for Languages. It is not intended for use as a language course. To fully understand its contents, the reader will need a high level of knowledge about the structure of Australian languages. Rather, it is intended for use as an adjunct to a course in Wergaia, such as the VCE Study Design Indigenous Languages of Victoria: Revival and Reclamation - Wergaia.colour photographs, b&w photographs, word listswergaia, wotjobaluk, barengi gadyin land council inc, grammar, language learning

All language educators are aware that culture is a vitally important reason for teaching languages. All curriculum statements for languages contain strong references to the importance of culture. We need to offer accessible cultural input to initiate the teaching of culture in language use, while at the same time not simplifying or stereotyping the community that speaks the language we are teaching. This book takes up these important questions and places in the hands of teachers well researched but very practical guidance, advice, resources and information on teaching culture in language. In this book you will find a discussion of what researchers, and classroom teachers, think and do about culture in language education and you will find a rich array of practical resources and advice for enhancing classroom practice. Specific languages addressed are: Chinese, French, German, Italian, Japanese and English as a Second Language. Preface /? Joseph Lo Bianco 1. Common themes /? Joseph Lo Bianco 2.

Currently, over 16,000 Indigenous students and 13,000 non-Indigenous students located in 260 Australian schools are involved in an Indigenous language program. More than 80 different Indigenous languages are taught. This project sought to present practice which would strengthen the quality of Indigenous language programs in schools. The report consists of a literature review, a mapping exercise to document current practices relating to Indigenous languages in Australian schools, an analysis of existing models of teacher preparation, and six case studies of good practice examples.colour illustrations, tables, word listseducation, curriculum development, language revival, language maintenance programs
