The class will begin with introductions. I will then sing and sign in American Sign Language the song "Little Toy Trains" and teach it to the learners. I will read aloud a special secular Christmas story called The Polar Express including gentle questioning about predictions and invitations to reflect and comment. I will invite the students to tell their favorite part of the story. When the story is finished, the students will do a step-by-step holiday drawing/coloring. We will review American Sign Language for the song "Little Toy Trains" and learn a few signs for lesson vocabulary.
