Class Experience

Welcome to Sign Language! This 5 week course will cover basic signs such as: the alphabet, numbers, a brief history of ASL, food, animals, nature, work and careers, and emotions. 
The class will be an involved lecture that allows the students to participate during it. Questions will be asked during the review.  
During each class, we will review material from the previous week.  Then we will go over the new topic and review before the class is done.
During the week, there will be finger spelling words that students can practice along with other types of signs to work on memorizing.
No previous experience is needed.
Here is a detailed list of what we will be studying each week:
Day 1: The Alphabet, and Numbers from 0-10
Day 2: Hand Shapes, Numbers 11-20, the History of ASL
Day 3: Basic Components of ASL, the Ear, and some Tips for Fingerspelling Practice
Day 4: Family and Social Life Signs
Day 5: Work and Careers
Day 6: Food
Day 7: Travel and Holidays
Day 8: Sports and Recreation
Day 9: Seasons, Time, and Weather
Day 10: Emotions
Day 11: Money and Shopping
Day 12: Education
Day 13: Health and Emergencies
Day 14: Religion
Day 15: Animals and Nature

Learning Goals

After students complete my class, they will have a deeper understanding about the deaf, their culture, and signs themselves.  They will specifically learn how to make sentences, learn about how ASL began, and will work with me on becoming good interpreters through the signs they learn.

Other Details

Supply List
I will be teaching from the book, Signing Made Easy by Rod Butterworth.

1. American Sign Language Dictionary by Martin Sternberg, 3rd Edition
2. The Joy of Signing by Lottie Riekehof
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
