SOLID FOUNDATIONS NONGONONA ELAKA is a grammar series for all learners in Namibia who speak Oshikwanyama as a first language.

The series is based on the Oshikwanyama First Language Syllabus developed by NIED for Junior Primary Phase and consists of a Learner’s Book, Reader and Teacher’s Guide for each grade.

Learners are encouraged to become active communicators by participating in a range of stimulating activities designed to develop their skills in reading, writing, listening and speaking in Oshikwanyama.

The textbook supports a learner-centred approach and reflects Namibia’s diverse cultural heritage in a positive manner.
