Some Textbooks for Cree Language Teaching.

Ahenakew, Freda

Canadian Journal of Native Education, v12 n3 p51-55 1985

Illustrates how major Cree language instruction books are not idiomatically and syntactically correct. Believes problems could be overcome if native speakers using spontaneous, everyday Cree would develop appropriate teaching materials based on traditional and contemporary family life and community activities.
