Keeping Busy After School (language)

Cece Chavez stood on a table at the Pine Point Boys and Girls Club pointing at some pictures and identifying them.  

The 3-year-old, however, had a hard time pronouncing “omakaakii,” “waawaashkeshi” and “manidoons.”  The Ojibwe translation for frog, deer and bug were written right on the photos to remind Cece and her fellow Boys and Girls Club members of their native tongue.  Story at: http://www.dl-online.com/event/article/id/56359/
