Nigamonan ondje abinòdjìnshag : songs for the children / compiled by Joan Tenasco for the K.Z.E.C. Mòkàsige.: R44-147/2000-PDF
"Algonquin Songs are sung to the tunes of childhood favorites. Some Algonquin songs have their own tunes. Don’t worry about the quality of singing or correct a child’s singing. Toddlers will join in on certain phrases and leave out others. When introducing a new song, sing it fairly slow. Over time children will be able to pick up the words. As you teach the children a new song, make hand gestures. Make it interesting so that they will eventually come to understand Algonquin. Another idea is a simple illustration of a symbol to represent the song"--Communicating with music, p. 1.
