The Be (Video) CRACKERJACK EDUCATION — TEACHING WITH AUNTY Year 6 Knowledge area: Dreaming TEACHING NOTES The Be (Video) Text type: narrative, spoken, online, multimodal VISUAL STIMULUS FOCUS The Be is one of twelve ancient Dreaming stories, each story uniquely interpreted by contemporary animators, musicians, artists, writers and actors. It explores kinship and identification with a community through language, song and dance. PRIOR TO VIEWING Introduce the video The Be to students. Start the video on the website. To engage your students, pause the animation after the first 10 seconds to show the initial first frame of the story and ask the students to identify the landscape or setting. (Answer: It is set in the desert. Ask the students how they know it is the desert.) Ask the students to think about what clues the first frame of the animation gives about the type of story it is. Ask the students to predict who or what they think ‘The Be’ might be. Background • The Be is an animated Dreaming story • At the time of European colonisation there and is part of the Dust Echoes video series were hundreds of different traditional Aboriginal produced by the ABC. The story explores languages and several geographically defined kinship and identification with a community. Torres Strait Islander languages spoken in It includes full narration to assist teachers Australia.1 with enunciation of language words and • Historically, clan groups could speak not only songs, and introduces Aboriginal language to their own language but also the language students. belonging to their neighbours. This was very • The Be is a Yirritja (Year-rit-cha) story told in important when trade and travel occurred Dalabon (Dal-a-bon) language from Central across traditional language boundaries.2 Arnhem Land in the Northern Territory. Sometimes up to 17 languages were known. It is passed down to all young people who live in the area and share the same type of language. © Blake Education and Crackerjack Education 1 CRACKERJACK EDUCATION — TEACHING WITH AUNTY SHARED VIEWING The story in the video The Be was told by Jimmy Wesan from the riverside country around Bulman in the Northern Territory. The Be [which is the mysterious thing in the story] reminds us that humans and animals are connected and belong to a place [a tribal or language area]. And that [language] songs and dances help build and maintain the necessary relationships between humans, nature and country.3 The moral of the story is not to judge others by what they look like, and that people will communicate better if they are shown kindness. 46 SEC The characters start speaking in Dalabon (Dal-a-bon), an Aboriginal language from central Arnhem Land. (This is a great way to introduce to students that there are different languages in Australia and highlight that this is only one of over 250 different Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander languages.) 1 MIN 8 SEC The Aboriginal man starts singing a language song using clap sticks and the people start to dance. (Ask the students why they think the man does this. Explain that perhaps it is to calm the people in the camp because they all seem worried and scared about the unknown thing. To add more mystery to the story, ask the students why they think the mysterious thing or person leave no tracks.) Note: Clap sticks are the most commonly used musical instrument of Aboriginal Australians and are made from wood. © Blake Education and Crackerjack Education 2 CRACKERJACK EDUCATION — TEACHING WITH AUNTY 2 MIN 33 SEC We are introduced to characters with special powers (the brothers) that could see through things. (Ask the students why they would like to have that power and what they would do with it.) 3 MIN 7 SEC When the brothers are tracking the mysterious thing, they use hand signals to talk to each other. (Point out to the students that hand signals were one way Aboriginal hunters communicated very quietly with each other, so as not to scare away animals or people. Ask the students to identify hand signals that are used today to communicate with each other [e.g. stop, come here, quiet, etc.].) 4 MIN The mysterious thing starts to sing a song, and the brothers realise that he is part of their family. (Aboriginal people have been connected by songs and language that are unique to each language or tribal group for thousands of years. The mysterious man knew the brothers’ language and songs; therefore, he must have been connected in some way. There are many ways families are connected, no matter where they come from — through language, similar looks, place, shared knowledge and information.) In the end, the mysterious thing just wanted to belong and connect up with his family. This was only able to happen when the brothers were kind and talked to him to find out his problem. This allowed them all to identify those with the same language songs and country — their family. © Blake Education and Crackerjack Education 3 CRACKERJACK EDUCATION — TEACHING WITH AUNTY Aboriginal Language Groups To use a modern comparison, ask the students to think of pre-colonised Australia (before 1788) like a map marking the boundaries of Australian regional areas. These boundaries have been set up to efficiently care for people in a region of manageable size. This is what Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Australia looked like as well. Show the students the Aboriginal Tribal Language Map (see the Additional Resources section). Explain to the students that each colour on the Aboriginal Tribal Language Map represents a different language (around 250) spoken by Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander people. Point out that there are more groups Map of the Dalabon language group and its closest neighbours near the coast on both maps. Ask the students why they think this might be. (Answer: This area is able to sustain a larger population.) You may wish to show the students the map of the Dalabon (Dal-la-bon) language group and its neighbours in the Northern Territory. Direct neighbours of the Dalabon Arnhem (Are-nem)/Yolngu (Yoll-nue) Ngandi (Narn-dee) Rembarnga (Rem-barn-gar) Numggubuyu (Num-gab-you) Dangbon (Dang-bon) Torres Strait Islander languages There are three main languages spoken by Torres Strait Islander people: 1. Kalaw Lagaw Ya [Kalor Lagor-Ya], which is similar to Aboriginal languages and is spoken on western, central and northern islands. 2. Meriam Mir [Mirriyam-merr] is the language of the eastern islands (including Mer) and is derived from Papuan languages. Individual dialects are also found on each of the islands. 3. A third language has also developed over time. This is Torres Strait Creole [Yumiplatok (You- me-pla-tock)], which is a mixture of the two traditional languages and English.4 This is now the most common language of the Torres Strait Islands. © Blake Education and Crackerjack Education 4 CRACKERJACK EDUCATION — TEACHING WITH AUNTY ACTIVITY Aboriginal English students know the Aboriginal English word or Aboriginal English has evolved because of the phrase that matches it.

DESCRIPTORS Advisory Committees; Agency Role; *Educational Policy; English (Second Language); Foreign Countries; *Indigenous Populations; *Language Role; *National Programs; Program Evaluation; Program Implementation; *Public Policy; *Second Languages IDENTIFIERS *Australia ABSTRACT The report proviCes a detailed overview of implementation of the first stage of Australia's National Policy on Languages (NPL), evaluates the effectiveness of NPL programs, presents a case for NPL extension to a second term, and identifies directions and priorities for NPL program activity until the end of 1994-95. It is argued that the NPL is an essential element in the Australian government's commitment to economic growth, social justice, quality of life, and a constructive international role. Four principles frame the policy: English for all residents; support for Aboriginal and indigenous languages; a language other than English for all; and equitable and widespread language services. The report presents background information on development of the NPL, describes component programs, outlines the role of the Australian Advisory Council on Languages and Multicultural Education (AACLAME) in this and other areas of effort, reviews and evaluates NPL programs, and discusses directions and priorities for the future, including recommendations for development in each of the four principle areas. Additional notes on funding and activities of component programs and AACLAME and responses by state and commonwealth agencies with an interest in language policy issues to the report's recommendations are appended.

  • Appendix a (PDF 85KB)
    A Appendix A: Committee visits to remote Aboriginal and Torres Strait communities As part of the Committee’s inquiry into remote Indigenous community stores the Committee visited seventeen communities, all of which had a distinctive culture, history and identity. The Committee began its community visits on 30 March 2009 travelling to the Torres Strait and the Cape York Peninsula in Queensland over four days. In late April the Committee visited communities in Central Australia over a three day period. Final consultations were held in Broome, Darwin and various remote regions in the Northern Territory including North West Arnhem Land. These visits took place in July over a five day period. At each location the Committee held a public meeting followed by an open forum. These meetings demonstrated to the Committee the importance of the store in remote community life. The Committee appreciated the generous hospitality and evidence provided to the Committee by traditional owners and elders, clans and families in all the remote Aboriginal and Torres Strait communities visited during the inquiry. The Committee would also like to thank everyone who assisted with the administrative organisation of the Committee’s community visits including ICC managers, Torres Strait Councils, Government Business Managers and many others within the communities. A brief synopsis of each community visit is set out below.1 1 Where population figures are given, these are taken from a range of sources including 2006 Census data and Grants Commission figures. 158 EVERYBODY’S BUSINESS Torres Strait Islands The Torres Strait Islands (TSI), traditionally called Zenadth Kes, comprise 274 small islands in an area of 48 000 square kilometres (kms), from the tip of Cape York north to Papua New Guinea and Indonesia.

  • Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Cultural Capability Respectful Language Guide
    We acknowledge Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the Traditional Owners and Custodians of this country and recognise their connection to land, wind, water and community. We pay our respect to them, their cultures, and to the Elders both past and present. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Cultural Capability Respectful Language Guide JULY 2016 Like all genuinely mutual and productive relationships, engagements with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities need to be based on respect. Respect must be offered and earned. The Respectful Language Guide was compiled by the Cultural Capability Enablers' Network (CCEN) following the launch of Respectfully Journey Together, the Department of Communities, Child Safety and Disability Services, Cultural Capability Action Plan. The CCEN noticed there was a great deal of variation in the use and understanding of language in departmental documents and in conversation, thus a process of documenting preferred terms and language began. The Guide has been developed by the CCEN to assist staff to make respectful, conscious and insightful choices of words, terms and language. Preface One aspect of making every interaction with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples more culturally capable, both in conversation and in writing, is using respectful language when describing or referring to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and cultures and words associated with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities, cultures and peoples. This Respectful Language Guide has been developed by the Cultural Capability Enablers Network (CCEN) to assist staff to make respectful, conscious and insightful choices of words, terms and language. This document was compiled by the CCEN in the first year following the launch of Respectfully Journey Together, the department’s Cultural Capability Action Plan.
