Immersion Strategies for Now

During the West Kimberley Language Gathering, Living Languages trainers Fiona and Sophie, along with guest trainer and Miriwoong teacher Che Kelly, conducted a hands-on workshop on immersion strategies for language teaching and learning. This interactive workshop showcased how these strategies can be integrated into everyday life to help strengthen and maintain language.

In breakout groups, participants engaged in an activity where they practiced making a cup of tea using the Four Stages and Total Physical Response (TPR) teaching methods to scaffold language learning. There were many laughs as participants acquired new skills and shared their language within their groups.

We had a fantastic time learning and sharing together and hope the participants can implement these strategies in their own contexts and communities!
