Fujita-Round studies Miyakoan language revitalization in public elementary schools in Japan. She explores which teaching methods are most effective and how school children feel about learning their ancestral language. She describes an arts-based word activity where students work in groups to create movies. She reinforces the necessity of the classroom as a safe and comfortable space, highlighting that group work and instructor support are more useful than criticism.
