New Songs!

Hi Everyone! It's been a busy summer with the class learning a few new songs. We now have some of them available.

Ch'iiyaan Biyin (Food Song)
This is a song about food (ch'iiyaan). A good way to incorporate familiar words for different types of food. It is similar to the tune, "If You're Happy and You Know It." A good way to teach younger children words involving food.

Let's Dance Over Here
This is a social song. This is a new song.

Shi Awee Alts'iisi (My Little Baby)
This is a nice lullaby for the little ones. This is a song by Sharon Burch.

I will post more songs later and develop a playlist for anyone who wants to keep a record of all the songs taught in the Summer class session.

Rug Weaving Class (New this Fall)
Keep posted for information on Fall session classes. There are a number of new ideas including a Rug Weaving class for anyone interested. The Rug Weaving class will involve miniature, individual rugs that the students can learn to weave. Contact Jolyana at jolyanabegay@yahoo.com if you need more information. She will have more information as we get closer to the class starting date regarding materials and fee for the class.
