Bringing the Beauty of Michif to the Next Generation
Our Michif flashcards are designed to introduce young learners to the Michif language in an engaging and accessible way. Each flashcard features a Michif word alongside an illustration, making learning fun and interactive. To support proper pronunciation, we’ve included audio recordings of distinguished Metis elder and prominent speaker Norman Fleury pronouncing each word. These flashcards are available in both physical and digital formats, ensuring access for all educators, parents, and caregivers.
These flashcards are an excellent resource for teachers, daycare workers, parents, and caregivers looking to introduce Michif to young children. Designed with kindergarten-aged learners in mind, the flashcards provide an easy and engaging way to incorporate language learning into daily activities, storytime, or classroom lessons.
Michif is the traditional language of the Métis people, blending Cree, French, and other Indigenous linguistic elements into a unique and rich language. It is a vital part of Métis heritage and culture, and today, efforts to revitalize Michif are more important than ever. By introducing young children to Michif, we are helping to keep this beautiful language alive for future generations.
A portion of the proceeds will be going to 3 MMF locals: Pembina Valley, Turtle Mountain, and Stoney Point.
Your support helps fund community initiatives, language revitalization programs, and cultural preservation efforts. Every purchase makes a difference!
