Week 7 (11-29, 12-1)

I hope everyone enjoyed their break off. The students have learned over 120 signs in the past few weeks and I have run out of my "basics" I had planned. I think then that we should spend the next few sessions practicing. I will be introducing games to the students this week that will reinforce their new language skills. And next week the students will learn a song that they enjoyed watching this trimester.
I will upload the Bingo cards I made and any other games soon- sorry for getting behind on the posts this week, I'm not quite ready for vacation to be over :)

Week 6- Foods and Thoughts (11-15, 17)

We will be working on a food theme this week- with special attention paid to Thanksgiving signs on Thursday.
Please remember to practice with your child. If the hand out stays in the car it can make a wonderful discussion starter in the morning drive to school or ride home from the grocery store. If you need another copy of anything it can be printed from this site or you can ask me after class :)

Feelings and Introduction to Questions (11-1, 3)

This week students will learn how to express their emotions as well as ask basic who, what, when, where and why questions.
In ASL the face is extremely important- almost more so than the sign it self. When your student is sharing their signs please ask them to practice showing the emotion on their face along with their hands.

Hello There!

Hopefully your student showed you their bracelet and today is the day you have found my resource page. If you start by reading Welcome and How To all your questions of what this site will show and how to use it should be answered. If there is any confusion, questions, or suggestions please feel free to comment on the blogs here or contact me directly.
Thank you for giving your child the opportunity to explore a new culture with me this trimester.
Miss A.

Week 3- Animals and Days (10-25, 27)

This week we are focusing on not only the days of the week but also on animal signs. Students are also being tested by playing games such as "Telephone" as a sign memory game rather than auditory memory game.

The Pledge of Allegiance

The students are picking up the signs quickly so we went on to learn the pledge of allegiance. Students at C3PA say the pledge each morning and now the ones from this class will be able to sign it as well.
The power point is in pdf form but can still be viewed and saved by clicking on the following link.
