Description

Class Experience

If you have a child who is excited to learn American Sign language, you are in the right place.  American Sign Language is a living, visual language used by the Deaf and Hard of Hearing community.  It is recognized as a "foreign language" in the United States and satisfies the requirements for a foreign language in grades 7-12.  In this 8 week course, we will build new vocabulary each week and learn how to use it conversationally.  Fingerspelling is an integral part of American Sign Language....

Students will have a firm grasp of a large base of vocabulary words and be able to use them to communicate in ASL.  This will provide a nice foundation for any student who wishes to continue learning the language.

Each student will be asked to practice fingerspelling, vocabulary words and practice sentences for a minimum of 10-15 minutes each day.  Doing this will help the student retain the information and increase their signing speed and accuracy.

I will post the vocabulary list and/or a video each week in the classroom for students to use for practice and review.

Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.

55 minutes per week in class, and an estimated 0 - 1 hours per week outside of class.
