Through modules from the provincial Mi’kmaq language curriculum, students will complete 7 modules of the introductory course. Throughout the course, we will also draw on supplementary Mi’kmaq language learning tools. Students will also be expected to create PowerPoints and use an audio recording program (Audacity). Students will also create an e-portfolio as a pre-requisite for the intermediate course.

Pencils, commitment to speak Mi’kmaq, notebook, headset with microphone. Please label all of your personal belongings as there will be no sharing of materials.

BLMS LATE ASSIGNMENT POLICY:

-    To get full marks, assignments need to be handed in by the assigned due date.

-    For every date late, after the assignment due date, 10% will be deducted from the mark (up to a maximum of 40%).  Weekends count as one day.

-    If a student is absent on a due date, a written excuse from a parent or guardian must be presented upon the student’s return, or the late-day deductions will apply.

-    A student’s mark cannot be lower than 60% given that the student deserves a passing grade on the assignment to begin with.  Any work getting a mark of less than 60% will receive that grade.

-    In order to be graded, all work must be handed in no later than 1 week after the given due date of the assignment.  Term marks are final.
