Session Title: What Will Our Legacy Be?
For generations, Lakota language and culture have been embedded into our schools at a surface level, and in recent years many non-profits and schools have begun shifting our approaches to ensure our language lives on. Learn how Thunder Valley’s shifting approaches to Lakota language immersion are utilizing both knowledge passed to us by our elders and montessori methodologies to guide our work into the future.

RSVP today! You'll receive a Zoom link in the event confirmation.
