Community Conversational Seneca Class - Every Thursday

Seneca Language Class @ BNRC - Mondays & Wednesdays

Posted in: Buffalo Native Resource Center

Nya:wëh Sgë:no’,

Beginning Monday, September 25^th, Seneca Language class will be made available each week on Monday and Wednesday evenings between 6pm and 8pm. Adults are the expected demographic for Wednesday nights as it coincides with the Youth Group time slot. This allows accommodation for adults while youth are occupied, giving more incentive for family attendance while diversifying available services. Monday night classes will therefore be designed for youth. However, both youth and adult classes will be beginner level. Both youth and adult classes will cover the same topics, with different forms of presentation.

An expected topic progression through the end of the year is outlined below:

Week:	Topic:	Example Activity:
September 25^th & 27^th	Pronunciation and Greetings	Flash Cards
October 2^nd & 4^th	Greetings and Responses	Greetings Game
October 9^th & 11^th	Identity (Clans & Nations)	Identity Shield
October 16^th & 18^th	Family	Family Tree
October 23^rd & 25^th	Numbers/Time/Math	Clocks
October 30^th & November 1^st	Clothing & Colors	Matching Game
November 6^th & 8^th	Commands	Simon Says
November 13^th & 15^th	Occupations	Go-Fish
November 20^th & 22^nd	Food & Harvest	Dinner Bracelets
