Unangam Tunuu

Unangam Tunuu is a set of tools and resources for Unangax̂ speakers and learners.

Unangam Tunuu
in the school

St. Paul Island School elementary-age learners have two Unangam Tunuu classes each week. In the classes the learners speak greetings, sing songs, perform routines, and play games using some “Where Are Your Keys?” techniques. 

Additionally, the Aleut Community of St. Paul Island and the Pribilof School District have collaborated on a course in St. Paul Island School for middle and high school learners, Unangam Tunuu Speaking Learning Teaching (UTSLT).
