.Download your copy of the Learn Na'vi the Easy Way here please.
http://www.learnnavi.org/docs/Learn-Navi-Activity-Book.pdfUPDATE: 2-22-10: I have received a submission from Skxe Eywaftu. I will add this to the newest version when I do an update, but in the meantime, please download this additional page here. The " Learn Na'vi the Easy Way" fun activity book is finally complete! It is free (well, duh) and has 100 pages of fun and more fun to help you learn your first words and basic grammar--fast. Grab a pencil, download a copy and start learning Na'vi! You will also want the Na'vi dictionary as well (here is a handy link: http://forum.learnnavi.org/intermediate/my-dictionary). This activity book focuses primarily on building your basic vocabulary fast, but has a few bonuses, including Skxawng's amazing grammar worksheets. You really want to study Skxawng's grammar worksheets, as they will save you weeks of frustration. They are easy-to-understand "fill-in" exercises you will really like. Be sure to thank Skxawng by giving a karma point for making these. PLEASE COMMENT IN THIS THREAD!NOTE: I finally found the "I love Bosco" radio commercial that has the original melody, that became the "I hate Bosco" parody song, which I mangled into Na'vi. Here is the original commercial jingle (you can get th melody from this). I have written permission from the site owner to use this material: www.dustywhite.net/Navi/Bosco.mp3

I like the variety of puzzles you've given. Worksheets always make things more interesting to do. Some of the puzzles I don't know how to do; I don't know whether I'm just that thick, or whether it just needs instructions. (I'm talking about the Keyword puzzles. The Crossword, Find-A-Word, and 2,3, and 4 letter fill in the blanks look like good starter puzzles for people like me.

I aspire to become like Dr. Norm Spellman.
Aliens have always been the bad guy. It's nice to see humans in a less than flattering light. Sangheili and Na'Vi: two totally awesome alien species.

The Crossword, Find-A-Word, and 2,3, and 4 letter fill in the blanks look like good starter puzzles for people like me.  GREAT POINT! Thank you. This is something I should have seen coming. I am not a "crossword junkie" but I have bought several crossword books in the past (which is where I got the idea for this) and I was assuming that these were fairly obvious. I should write out intros for each puzzle to explain the idea. For the moment, the keyword puzzles work like this: The "Key word" is made up of all of the missing letters from the clues. When you write in a missing letter ("IRA_0 is missing "Y" for example"), you write the missing letter (in this case "Y") in the "Key word." Each cluse has a number (1,2,3,4 . . .) that corresponds diretclty to the number of the letter in the keyword. The idea behind the Key word puzzles is that you can either fill in the letters of the clue words, or, if you don't know a particular word in a clue, BUT you do solve the Keyword, you can take the letter from the keyword and fill it in the clue (learning a new word that way). Wow that was complex. I hope it helped. Thanks for the feedback--I will get on that.

Kaltxì! I thought that was really great. I pretty much fail at teaching myself a language all by myself, but that really helped. I think you should totally continue with it, because it seriously helps. I had the same problem with the keyword puzzles, but I got it now  irayo!

Okay, so I changed the "Key Word Puzzles" (now re-named "Mystery Word puzzles") and added a few pages from the original workbook (3 weeks ago--pre Windows crash). I apologize deeply for all of the white space, but the old pages are unfixable until I completely redo them, which at this point is a non-starter. I want to find my back-up Quark CD, or buy a new copy rather than fight with MS Word any more.
But other than that, we are up to 20 pages (some pages are a bit bare, as noted above), and if I can get a better desktop publishing solution, and if it turns out people generally like this, I can expand it to 40 pages with no real problem. That's a LOT of Na'vi fun! And from there more pages can be added, until some lawyer decides that I cannot. So please remember to leave feedback HERE.
Irayo, Irayo, Oel meuia aynga(ti?) nìtwox. (I hope that says "I honor all of you")

Great job Dusty  Glad you finally went public with it, ive had to sit on this thing for like three weeks! Spread the word, because I have a feeling that this is going to help a lot of people that have been struggling.

With all of my heart I thank you. I will see what I can do to make future pages easy for absolute beginners, challenging for those who are not, and evil enough for FOX, oops! I mean the RDA! (gyaa! I hate being so sumìna* sometimes!)
