Students will learn: -Several vocabulary words to accurately sign the writing -The meaning and message behind the poem and how to accurately choose the correct ASL vocabulary word -How to sign the entire poem while incorporating facial expressions and body language *ASL does have its own grammar. Note that the ASL version of the poem will be very different from the English version because English structure is quite different than ASL. *Depending on the length of the poem, there may be 1-3 lesson videos.* _________________________________________________________ General (and flexible) schedule: -Week 1-4: Learning the poem's meaning, ASL vocabulary signs, & putting it all together!

Teacher expertise and credentials
I studied American Sign Language Interpreting in college and received my Bachelor's Degree through Northern Arizona University. I have been a sign language Interpreter in the K-12 setting for the past eight years. I am fluent and passionate about this beautiful language and Deaf culture. I also have experience teaching. So I figured why not merge the two together!
