The Neurolinguistic Approach (NLA) to learning language builds networks in the brain that allow learners to develop their language skills naturally. Five principles support the NLA and the approach requires a lot of oral work. Learners are provided with models of sentences (at the beginning, fairly simple sentences) that they need, so that they may communicate in the language in authentic, real, situations (adapted from Netten and Germain, 2012).
Implications of the 5 Principles
The five principles of the NLA have implications for teaching. Learners must do most of the talking (work) in order for their brains to develop the patterns. Quiet listening is not enough.

Indigenous Languages Month
The theme for Indigenous Languages Month 2022 is “Let’s Go Fishing.”
To assist schools in celebrating the “Let’s Go Fishing” theme, a fish-themed resource package was sent out to all schools. This package included copies of a fish themed book, “Fishing in the Summertime” or “Fish for You & Fish for Me!” (selected to represent the culture of the region), Fish Chowder recipe cards, and Checking the Fishnet Yoga instructions translated into the Indigenous language of your community. You can also access all of the Indigenous Language Month (ILM) resources from this page.
