**Intermediate American Sign Language (ASL) Class for Ages 8-10** Join us for an engaging and educational Intermediate American Sign Language (ASL) class designed specifically for children aged 8-10. This class builds on foundational ASL skills, diving deeper into the language and enhancing communication abilities. We highly recommend that learners complete Beginner ASL Part 1 and 2 to ensure they are prepared for our intermediate-level content. **What You’ll Learn:** **Fingerspelling and Vocabulary:** Improve fingerspelling skills and expand ASL vocabulary. **Glossing:** Learn the process of glossing, which involves writing ASL signs in a structured format to better understand sentence construction. **Sentence Structure:** Study ASL sentence structure, focusing on proper grammar and syntax to form clear and accurate sentences. **Conversational Skills:** Practice everyday conversations, ensuring learners can communicate effectively in various scenarios. **Cultural Insights:** Gain insights into Deaf culture and community, fostering a deeper appreciation and respect for ASL and its users. **Class Format:** **Greetings:** Engage in a fun game to practice fingerspelling and warm up for the session. **Review:** Revisit language functions, grammar, and vocabulary from the previous week. **Break:** A brief intermission for a restroom break or to stretch. **New Learnings:** Introduce new vocabulary, glossing techniques, and sentence structures. Each week, we will focus on different items or themes to keep learning exciting. **Practice:** Work on constructing sentences using glossing techniques in breakout rooms, allowing for hands-on practice and peer interaction. **Review:** Summarize the week’s lessons, reinforcing new vocabulary and sentence structures learned. We provide teaching slides after each class to support ongoing learning and practice at home. We can’t wait to see your child in class and embark on this exciting journey of learning ASL together!

With more than 15 years of experience in teaching American Sign Language, including a decade of working within the Deaf community, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to the table. In addition, I run a thriving music and movement program in my local area, providing ASL instruction to preschools and private kindergartens nearby.
My experience with a hard-of-hearing child has honed my skills as an Outschool teacher, allowing me to bring a unique perspective to the classroom. As an educator, I prioritize creating a fun, engaging learning environment that inspires and motivates students to continue learning.
Please note that I adhere to strict confidentiality guidelines and never disclose sensitive information or engage in high-risk topics during my classes.
